Prayer of a Shopaholic

Dear God,
Grant me the serenity of not entering places like Tony Romas, Delicious and its decedents. My stomach is too humble for such heavenly food.

Dear God,
Grant me the protection from the temptations of Isetan. Forgive me as I am even a member of such group. Forgive my sins when I even took out my membership card at Robinson’s outlet. I have offended the Robinson’s employee.

Dear God,
Thank you for making me resists the lure of buying 5 pairs of shoes. I only bought one as I enter the heavenly kingdom of Charles & Keith. I couldn’t imagine a place overflowing with beautiful shoes at a 7th heaven’s price.

Dear God,
These days I have succumb to the calling of Rock Corner. Joss Stone whisper her soulful rhythm and blues in my ears last week. That sound “Free Me Up” is such a sinful melody. This week I got better by buying Maxwell, at least the chap talks about Pretty Wings. Such an angelic voice that you have bestowed on him.

Dear God,
Thanks for giving me a best friend by the name of Laura Mercier. She is expansive than my fellow Mac. However, she covers my eyes from the evils of bad cover up which I shall not mention here. I only had to buy her twice a year.

Dear God,
I admit, last night I succumb to the lurking of Isetan, to the beautiful creation of Charles & Keith, the angelic sound of Maxwell and the coverings of Laura Mercier. Next time, I hope you bless me with an angel who would knock me with his/her halo whenever I have horns coming out of my head at the sight of those many temptations.


Sincerely,
The Sinful Shopper
