Time Passing

Well, time flies eh? It's been what a year since I wrote. Shame on me. I guess my time management skills still need work. Thank you Joanne for rekindling my blog.

Anyway, FREEDOM. For the first time in four years, I feel free. I didn't realize how trapped I felt until now. With the overwhelming task of managing two some what unruling children in public, I hated and avoided going out. A simple task of running into a store became an ugly battle. Therefore I was bound to my prison-house or trying to flee at any moment. BUT now... the rugrats are manageable and fun.

Honestly, for quite some time, I haven't enjoyed being a mother. It was a chore, a burden. Daily questioning~ what's the point, WHY ME? Alas... I see a light at the end of the toilet paper roll... while faint, at least it's there now. Parenting isn't ONLY a job but becoming a pleasure. It's about time.

"Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose." ~ C. Wright Mills
