You know what's keeping me positively up on my toes lately?
It's not about work or my blog.
It's personal…

You want to know the reason why I feel like I'm on cloud 9?
My mom.
After 30 years of working abroad (Saudi Arabia), my mom finally(!) is retiring from her profession as a midwife. Yes, she "pull" babies on a regular basis!
Sad fact is, her work kept her from taking care of her "real" babies. That's me and my two brothers. I think she has spent more time taking care of other people's babies other than us but that's fine. You gotta do what you gotta do! And as a mom, I think she did just right. I wouldn't be where I am right now without her efforts. Too cliche? But true.
Now for the lighter-sky-high side of things...

…I was way beyond ecstatic when I heard the news that she's retiring already. This is something that I requested her to do a couple of years back ever since I started my business but my mom is hard-headed in a way (and by nature) that she would rather work and go on and on and on. She loves to work! Period. (Whew! Just thinking about it makes me tired)
Yes!

You guys? What're the reasons behind your smiles?
Aaawww so happy for you Paul! Yan may magreremind na sa'yo to eat your meals on time! Hehe
ReplyDeleteHi Paul, naku same kayo ng mom ni hubby. MIL naman is a nurse sa Saudi Arabia din ang almost 25 years na dun. Di pa din magreretire, pag 60 years old na daw. Pareho siguro kayo ng feeling na di masyado naalagaan. I hope you'll spend more time with your mom and kahit di ka nya naalagaan, ikaw magalaga sa kanyan :D
