Of BELLS & WHISTLES

Of BELLS & WHISTLES

Is this worth our talking point today?  Of BELLS & WHISTLES?  Me thinks this is a topic that has gone so cold and unnoticed because on the surface, it seems mundane and probably one of the most boring topics ever.  But hold on.  How often do we see BELLS & WHISTLES?  We ourselves how often do we hang BELLS & WHISTLES at various points in our life?

Whether during our growing up years going into early adulthood till we found our footing to be on our own, do we not recall those moments where we need to put up all the niceties in life, those trimmings, those buntings, all to spruce up things and for us or our situation to look more alluring and probably attractice beyond doubt?  

To evoke pomp and come up with pompous events, those BELLS & WHISTLES were the very tools we wpuld tend to grab first.  When we were fresh graduates from school and now job hunting out there in the market, do we remember all the BELLS & WHISTLES we would attach in our CV/Resume to window-dress it?  Which BTW is nothing wrong.  But the issue is often clouded deep beyond our eyes.

The saddest part though is that after all the BELLS & WHISTLES and trimmings we would window-dress either our persona, our character or our life itself, deep inside are SKELETONS in the CLOSET.  Really sad and regrettable.  We would sometimes put up a happy facade but beneath the surface, we are either decaying or not reflective of what we are trying to project.  So what's our lesson here?  Let's be GENUINE and TRUE to ourselves regardless if there are BTW, BELLS & WHISTLES.  Just DON'T put up a farcical facade📌📌📌
