:: White Teeth >_< ::

*GrinZ* juz came back from the dentist..teeth all polished and clean..NOT whitened though..=P

I was juz wondering..why do some pple take out their braces, excited about the new set of straight teeth they have, only to suffer from stained teeth? Hmmz..isnt it juz so ironic?
Not too long ago i juz removed my braces only to discover that the glue stains were quite bad..
Thank God however, my dentist is one great guy! He told me to buy some whitening gel for only $50..compared to the $600 one must pay to bleach one's teeth..=)

heh..at first i used it nonstop for the first few days then i got lazy...=( the after effect of the gel was that my gums hurt quite bad, thus after 4 dosages i stopped whitening my teeth altogether.
Consequence? My teeth are now nothing like the white pearly teeth i dreamed them to be after whitening!

haha..today i asked my dentist how come the whitening gel did not work, my dentist told me that i needed to use it at least 10-20 times before it would remain shiny white! haha lazy me only stopped at the 4th try! how could I have expected it to work?!

Somehow i managed to draw a parallel to this situation to many othe situations in our life.

God knows what's best for us all the time, but we as humans are often stubborn and doubt that He knows best. Okay, imagine God is my dentist. He tells me the whitening gel is good for me. What do i do?! I look for fast results. in other words, i am bent on getting my own way, which is to have white teeth ASAP.

What is the result? I do not get what i want within the period of time i expect to get it and i begin to blame God for not keeping up to His promise. What caused me to think so? Obstacles like my painful gum caused me to lose focus on the end product - whitened teeth.

Why are we always so distracted?! Why cant we just put 100% trust in God, and allow Him to work in our lives? We will then enjoy MUCH MORE than just whiteneed teeth..we'll enjoy riches in HEAVEN! Well, just something for us to think about i guess..=)

Hehe..so i bet u know what i intend to do now?! Haha..gona start using the whitening gel everyday so that i get nice white teeth in time for Chinese New Year =) Whether i persevere to the end or not..i guess u guys will know when u see me yah? *wink*
