When relationships don't work

..............you hold on to your kids like never before, knowing too well that this might snap too! It's a very very insecure feeling. You try and divert yourself by reading,exercising but the unhappy ,insecure feeling is there ,haunting you all the time.

Its even worse when children grow up and leave home. You long for that one email and always check to see if they are online in their waking hours. Its even more when all along one has not chalked one's social life and have been totally devoted to the children, even if it meant wrapping their gifts for the birthdays they had to go to.Their stay at home is so very short !

Feel happy that out of all this,they have emerged to be nice ,sensitive human beings. Hope they always remain so .One day might feel a proud 'Mamma' ,that the time inveseted on them was truly worth it.

Hello D. I haven't seen you on my blog for a while so I stopped by to see how you're doing, and I see a very worrying post indeed. I do hope things are going all right for you.

And my parents agree that a well-brought up, caring child is the best return on investments any person can ever have. I only hope they're thinking of me when they say it :-)
