Nothing seems to be the same anymore..............small things i used to take for granted .......... morning coffee with my newspaper...(my mom yelling in the background).....late evenings spent lying under the stars.......snuggled sleep under warm blankets till late..........( again my mom yelling in the bg) .Today everything is rushed i dont have time for morning papers...i cant enjoy my coffeee.....though i long to i dont manage to sleep.What is my problem?Has responsibilities bogged me down or do i feel the other wifely duties are more important than my so called ramblings and musings....Im caught inbetween 2 worlds.......... i love my job but am i neglecting my family?There is this guilty pleasure of doing what you are passionate about....not to mention the financial high....Life has turned too monotonous its no longer as colorful as i envisaged it to be.But it still has given me a host of little things im thankful for....host of new friends,new found freedom and newer responsibilities.now i say "Thank God for small Mercies".

Hi N!
u are right! seems like d post was written jus for me!
I do accept that when God closes a door, he opens a window!!
and im happy for that too!
but as we "stand and stare" thru dat newly opened window... dont we jus turn back occasionally... to see dat closed door?!
to throw looks of - sadness, longing and a slow acceptance - mixed with one another!! at least at the initial stages!!
jus wat i thought!
and i indeed like ur optimism!
wish i cud borrow an ounce of it!!
Thanks N!
hi nirmala...
nice thoughts there put in beautifully...but i have one question...do u drink coffee? i only see u RELISHING your cup of hot water as it were coffee...!
jokes apart...ur words made me think of the times i had at my call...now even b4 i think its time to get off the bed, both my bro's phone n mine go off..i've realised that wen u take up a new responsibility, there r always more ppl than ourselves reminding us about it...
its for sure that where there is a will, there is a way...n u and many other who give me a strong example of handling two whole apart as if they were jus the same world...
i'm getting my inspiration from ya'l..
luv
alien
