You Can't Always Get What You Want

Ate and I were supposed to go to SM Dasma yesterday, but since the item that we need to purchase was out-of-stock, we went to SM Bacoor instead. Ate went to David's to get a haircut and haircolor (to look good for her new uniform.. hehehe..). I made gala while waiting for her. Since Book Sale is just opposite the salon, I dropped by there first. Haaay! And who would have thought, the book that I was looking for was there! Lucky me! 

I scanned the books on the NORA ROBERTS' section.. I need to remove some of the books in front since there were more Nora Roberts' books behind them... And whaaaammmm! The book was there.. as if it was waiting for me.. Awwww...   Until now, still, I can't get over the feelings of seeing the book that I was longing for for about almost 2 months now.. Pure joy and amusement!!! I mean who would have thought???? 

The New Apple of my Eye 

BACKTRACK: 

I purchased Nora Roberts' "The MacGregor Grooms" almost two months ago since it got into my criteria. I got so hooked I finished reading it in two days (I can finish it in just one day if I don't need to go into the office to work.. Hehehehe...) Nora Roberts' works normally comes in saga. I remember reading an e-book (Alan-Grant) related to the MacGregor saga in particular. I saw in the beginning of the book that there was another book the "The MacGregor Brides" and I need to get them.. fast!!!!!

I suddenly came to realize and wonder, is the power of the mind really true??? I mean you try to think of what you want to happen and then for some reason it happens??? I usually think of so many things (mostly material things that are not too pricey) and I got most of it.. for some reasons I just got them... Whether a gift from a friend or a relative.. Or was it the power of prayers?? When we sometimes murmur simple things like "Lord... sana makakita ako ng ganitong book... para mabili ko... ung mumurs lang kasi ayoko naman pong gumastos ng sobrang mahal para lang sa libro...". And then it makes me realize again that God grants us those things that will make us a better person and He will still grant the rest of your wishes later.. Which puts me into a conclusion that "You can't always get what you want..".. maybe not today but eventually when you are mature enough to handle things..
