Shiny things

Magpies like shiny things. I like shiny things, too. For example, I like that this shiny, pink piece of paper reflects the light and distorts reality. I think it’s quite common for people to like shiny things. It may be because shiny things are a promise of excitement. Of fun things to come. Or maybe because they mirror a glamour version of yourself and others. But eventually even this shiny piece of pink paper will lose its shine. And what are you going to do then? #chasingthenew
