Jose Rizal

Do you still remember the Jose Rizal story about the slippers? While Jose Rizal was in a boat, one of his slippers fell to the sea. The young Rizal then took the other pair and threw it to the sea. Hoping that whoever would find them would have a usable pair.

Between the hubby, D and me – we are always losing a glove, a mitt, a sock, anything that comes in a pair. Maybe the wind blew the other mitt away. Maybe the bus driver took fancy on just one glove. Maybe the dryer ate the other sock.

It even came to a point of buying the same white or black socks. Several pairs of dollar store gloves. But still I find myself with a black sock on my right and a blue one on my left. A mystery.

So, did you remember that Jose Rizal story? I just told D the story after realizing we cannot find the other pair of his favorite black glove (not a dollar store pair). I wish we know where he lost it – we could have done a Rizal.

  1. I found a black glove at the STC parking lot. Could that have been D's? *LOL*
