Origami Heart Box - To Fit or Not into a Box

Have heard it somewhere that Some people will only love you as long as you fit in their box. Don't be afraid to disappoint. Have been thinking about this quote for quite a long time now. Do we really need to please everyone? Do we need to live for others? Do we have the right to question as a woman or as a human being? Or are we just required to follow the norms, perform our duties, carry on our responsibilities and always try to fit into somebody else's box otherwise we are considered as misfits in this society! 

If we dare to disappoint then we are selfish. If we dare to question we are deemed wrong. What then is right and what is wrong...have been reflecting, questioning and wondering for quite some time now yet I don't have the answer to this question. I will leave you then to decide...if you figure it out then leave your comments. 


As I leave you wondering and wandering into the realms of boxes, about fits and misfits, here is what I folded today...a Heart Box designed by Jo Nakashima and a Standing Heart designed by Klaus-Dieter Ennen.

A Heart Box and a Standing Heart
In the above picture, the Heart Box is made using 17.5 x 17.5 cm square origami paper, while the Standing Heart is made from a 6.5 x 6.5 cm square origami paper.

And yes, these two things are beautiful ideas you can try and make for your loved ones this Valentine's day...if you wish to fit into somebody's heart you can surely try making something special!
