Another Day...

Dera @Afresh,

I don't know of anyone who can claim an original idea - you know what I mean? I was talking to my students about Socrates and said something like "You know, he kind of encouraged people to think for themselves" and you should have seen the look of wonder and bafflement in their eyes. Precious!

I am more than convinced that there is enough around us if we pay attention and you just proved that! I do want share a little perhaps unnecessary info - I was talking with a friend's son, almost finishing college and I mentioned Life situations vs life in the context of what he is going through and I literally saw his eyes sparkle with a "Now, I get this" and he sent a note later! These incidences do make my days! I may not contribute something earth shattering but the joy i get by putting in a smile on somebody's face, you got it priceless!

And you made me happy with your words of appreciation. Certainly hope to see more of you!

 

@Afresh,

What a delightful snippet this is! This shows writers are not born but made through their determination to express themselves clearly and concisely about their feelings. Your concerns for your daughter shows how much mothers sacrifice for the well-being of their children. I tell the children in our spiritual center, if you like to understand the meaning of sacrifice, please watch any mother and observe their actions. This snippet is another invaluable piece of writing on the subject. I am so happy to hear your husband took time to tend to your child relieving you from the tension you were experiencing.

I believe most of us dream about big things and in the process fail to recognize small things in which we live everyday. It is important to enjoy every moment in life when the child is growing up. Those days are precious and we will never get it again. I have missed many such milestones of my son and I still regret it.

As I was a working woman I can understand the challenges faced by working woman both at home and office. Glad to know your hubby stayed back to be with your daughter.
