If you have a cool and expensive suit, but because of one or more things, the buttons are loose and gone, will you wear the suit again?
If we contemplate, buttons are just a complement to clothing. If we dress with buttoned clothes, what people see as the main thing is the clothes and not the buttons. Likewise when we first choose to buy it or order it on the tailor. But an expensive outfit can be worthless in our eyes if the buttons are gone, especially if the buttons are very unique and in accordance with the clothing model, while it’s very difficult to find a replacement.
Yeah, Secretly this trivial little thing can teach many things too. For example, not to underestimate the simple and seemingly trivial things around us, our relationships with others, especially partners, parents, children, siblings, friends, etc. because if they or the emotional bonds of the relationship disappear, we can suffer prolongedly. Often we lack respect for someone’s existence because of many things such as; already accustomed, no longer see the exquisite, the distinguished, do not presume that things can change and just disappear, etc.
Another thing that is also philosophical about buttons is how we button our clothes, from above or from below. There is an old teaching about that which says that if you button clothes from the top button down, it can describe the character: “We only want to go straight to the top, and then we cover things that were in the past, and we just want other people to only to see when we are at the top, and other people are not allowed to see what happened before “. While for those who button clothes from the bottom button to the top: “We are people who are shameless to succeed and continue to work hard because we achieve success or our success starts from the bottom until we reach the top with various obstacles that exist. Other people right see us fighting from the bottom to get to the top until we reach the peak of our success without shame to cover up what actually happened before “.

I didn’t know that there was a button photo challenge.
Hahaha…
No! This is not button photo challenge, but the 365 Photos Challenge and this time the one I took was buttons. That’s all, Nela. Thanks for your visit anyway!
Thank you for sharing this blog. I always try to have friendly relationships with my loved ones.
It’s great to know that you value relationships so much. That’s very important.
That is true since we live in harmony which is very important to live a good life.
Yep! Harmony is very important and must be maintained.
That is a fact that separate happy people to miserable people.
Sometimes we lose something so that we can replace it with something better. don’t you think so?
Of course, my friend. We have and will still lose or separate from the various things that are around us, until one day apart from our own case. But if we know the reason for the existence of something around us, respect, and love them sincerely, we will not regret having ever considered it trivial unimportant.
I agree, so time for you to change that lost button otherwise you look odd wearing that suit.
Even with the substitution button, that suit would seem odd, and we would be reluctant to wear it again.
don’t substitute. Change all the buttons with something better
You are right, unfortunately, we cannot replace or leave a partner or someone who has “lost something” just like that, right?
who has lost something, yes we can’t leave someone just like that.
who is lost at something that’s a different story.
Speaking of partnership. if things are not working anymore then why go on.
I understand that talking about a relationship is very complex, but at least we don’t have to leave the beloved because the person loses his hand, for example, or a certain illness, right? or we can lose good relationships because we have underestimated something important from a relationship, until something good becomes unwanted again.
Amazing how the little things in our daily lives can have such an impact. The little button is a prime example. I button from the top down. Not sure if my character fits the old saying. I never fit it any category. I see myself as the “other” or “none of the above” options. But i ma ok with that. I like being different.
These typos…. But I am ok with that.
(Correcting the above typo)
Typo… that’s okay, Carol. Incorrect typing is normal, right?
As you always suggested, we must be observant to pay attention to the small things around us and to be grateful.
I myself think the saying is just a reminder that we always wisely respond to our life’s journey and also all our valuable struggles.
One of our similarities is to be different, not because of intention but because of the journey of life.
I agree with you, as you already know. Different is good.
