The New Mobile Phone Dilemma PART 2

This Saturday at the Restart Party, we haven't managed to repair my poor mobile phone (PART 1).
Luckily, one of the members of the Hackspace have a spare one that is happy to lend me until I am able to repair my own. I accept gratefully.

I get home and get myself two spares part to replace the screen on my mobile phone.
They arrived at home.
I put them in a drawer.
They stay there.

The current mobile phone that was lent to me is perfectly convenient for the time being.

I forget to bring the replacement screen at the next restart party and I come to learn that the person who lent me the mobile phone has gone and will never come back to Leicester and I will not find a way to give it back to him.

I accept fate.

Months pass by and I never manage to repair my old mobile phone. it is somewhere in a drawer with its spare parts.
I forget about it. I have a working phone in my hands.

Until this Sunday morning after having repaired the bottom drawer of a cupboard, the screw driving machine fell on my borrowed mobile phone...

It is a human tendency to envy  others for what they possibly represent. The more we think of others, insecurity can possibly sit in. Disconnection between them and us become even more tangible as emotions are embellishing the illusions. The mind is the biggest manipulator we have probably ever met. There is nevertheless a fine line between envy and admiration. It is worth contemplating the true nature of your inner arguments. Admiration by William Adolphe Bouguereau Play a game of multiple iterations with me for a second. Pick a pen and paper First Iteration - Start with I am envying this person (name) because - write why you envying this particular person - Ask yourself if you know or saw the whole truth about this person's life - Pause Second iteration - Replace I am envying ...
