Raising your Mom

It will be the first time I'll talk about it. I don't know..for the longest time it seems I had the ability to ignore it. Its about my relationship with my mother. I love her,I do-but I dont remember my mom kissed or hugged me or vice versa. We are not that typical mother -daughter relationship. You see she never taught me too cook or to wash my clothes.

When I was in elementary she never really attended my PTA or my recogniton day. One more thing she never told me her story about men. I was clueless when I was a teenager. I met this girl,we are of the same age and she has a condom on her wallet where I havent even seen one.(unwarpped) When guys started courting me-I never heard her disapprove. I got advises from my friends who to date or to dumped..but never from her. She never really liked my friends.

My mom is a shopahilic and she 's afraid to hear the truth. Everytime I ask her,she thinks I am confronting her and I end up to be that ungrateful daughter. Our house in M. Pauilino is full of her stuff. Shoes , bags and clothes that she never really wear. I could put up my own handy me down store-and I am not exagerrating..

Now, what pushed me to the limit? She thinks my yaya is flirting my papa. She felt it and now its her reality.I can't talk her out of it.

Now we are taking time apart.I don't know how long. I love her..I do..I just dont know how to make her believe that. Do I make her proud? I'm lost. Its like raising a daughter..only she's older than me.

I am a mom..but we are different.

Addicted to life

I confess, I'm addicted to life. Its ups and downs..Its unpredictable twist and turns. Life itself is meant to be appreciated. There maybe be times things are going slow but hey you have to pick up the phase and get back in the game.

You have to savour every moment that you are here on earth. Do what you have to do...

Be the best daughter...

Be the best wife...

Be the best mother...

Be the best friend...

Be the best teacher...

And so you might ask;What to do if I fail? ThenI'll say "Good For you that you tried..now learn from it and never give up".

That's life...we have to continuously give our best, because what we put out there is what will be given back to us. If its love-we will be loved. If its gratitide- we will have more, if its happiness then we will be surrounded by happy moments.

I now have things I never thought I'll have. Like my own nice little house, a loving family, I've started my own business. That's the life i live, I am blessed and thankful for everything.

Life is not perfect,Sadness is part of life but it doesn't have to be the center of it. When your hurt -give yourself time to heal. If your dissappointed -try to make it work by looking the other way. Its up to you to make it perfect- In your own way. Live this life with no regrets and people from afar will just be amazed on how you lived your life.
