ALL THAT GLITTERS .........

in #life6 years ago

All that glitter is not gold, meaning that something is not as good as they look, could also mean that good appearance doesn't mean it is ofgood quality. It could also mean that being good looking, beautiful or handsome is not equal to have a good character.
A friend of mine sometime ago told about the dream he had, was an interesting dream, he said that in the dream he was walking past a garden and saw a mango tree, behold on that three there was just one ripe and very juicy mango fruit, there was no blemish on it, other mango fruit were yet to met with the standard of this particular fruit. Fortunately for my the mango fruit was within reach so he stretched foryh his hands and plucked it, washed it and took a bite, low and behold this ripe and juicy mango fruit was as bitter as a bitter leaf. He wanted to know what that dream meant and the saying "NOT ALL THAT GLITTERS IS GOLD" poped in to my mouth.
Few months later this friend of mine introduced me to his fiancee, she was was what you could describe as over beautiful, infact she was gorgeously gorgeous if there is anything like that, you would approve of her anytime, any day anywhere.
Suddenly my mind went back to the dream my friend had and i called him and reminded him about it, he waved saying its just a dream and besides its a mango fruit and not a person. After a while they got married, this marriage didn't last up to six months and it crashed . This was because the girls character was nothing to write home about, she frustrated my friend for the few period they lived togther,he almost committed sucide.
Friends please have it in mind that all that glittersr is not gold, that so called beautiful, handsome person you cherish may just be a lion in sheeps clothing. Don't be blinded by looks, smiles, gifts and gentility. Look very well before you say I do because truely not all that glitters is gold.
