Emmagoodegirl. Every complaint my mum has against me, I normally take it to heart and they affect me quite extensively. Sometimes I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Sometimes I wish to be like some of my friends, being a bit more rebellious in the sense that every word our mothers say will not affect us so deeply as it does now to me. I am saying all these in the context of really wanting to spend more time with my parents and having made allowances (ie. resist the temptation of piling my week's schedule with outside activities). And I must admit that I haven't been spending a lot of time with them the past 2 weeks. Sigh. It's a bad thing that my mum knows I'm a cell group leader now huh. OKAY......that's my flesh speaking...... It is an art learning how to honour our parents. I ain't perfect at it. Still have a long way to go. And still trying my best. It is easy to say that because my family is those kind that demands quality time, that I'm going through all these which seems "unfair" to me. It is easy to say this is the period of time when empty nest syndrome kicks in for parents with kids my age. All these perhaps are valid reasons but deep inside, I know that I can still do something in spite of all these reasons, or rather, EXCUSES that I give myself. I have been really working hard trying to balance my lifestyle. Yet I kind of expected this day to arrive. The time when my mum's complaints will be like a sounding alarm, indicating to me whether my life is on or off-balance. There's just alot of adjustments to make around new commitments....what a headache. Maybe it is a necessary evil. At the end of the day, emmagoodegirl. I know I am. Labels: daily rantings 2:19 AM
