Yesterday was a revelation for me.
Well..
A teary mum was explaining to me how sad she felt that we sometimes don't understand that she is getting old.
I was kinda unhappy that planning always goes to me.
If Moses doesn't plan, there will just be a simple zu chao dinner for anyone's birthday in the family. Of course I want us to be bonded more than just a simple dinner. It's been more than YEARS since we did a real recreational activity with the whole family.
And as usual the burden goes to me.
This time I was kinda flared up because I don't think anyone really bothered about me. So I kinda rebutted her when she asked me to SMS my sister regarding the details.
Ah.. its that kind of 3 minutes retaliation with a 60 minutes talk, as usual I will give in to her.
But what really struck me was when she was telling me about how daddee was complaining about her not listening to handphone rings or taking down the wrong details. She held back her tears and shared about how afraid she was about the future. Imagine herself now still able to walk and do stuff and he is already complaining about little things, what if one day she is not able to walk anymore and bedridden, will he still want her?
This is a shocking truth you see. I did not realize that before until she tells me. The fact that I was always surrounded by young and energetic people deluded me in thinking that my very own parents are still the same. You can consider them senior citizens and I have not for once thought of how they will be like as they goes with age.
I am quite disappointed with myself. Yeah going 23 in a few days time and yet not such realization have dawned upon me.
