You are afraid to give them the "puppy cradle death" syndrome..It's like a little kid gets a puppy for the first time, just hugs it so much, snaps it's neck. All that love is gonna snap that puppy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Difficult to strike a balance...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always wanted to be a mother, I have an ideal idea of my family life... I do not know if my ideal will come true...I m working towards it...Earning hard day by day to gain experience and earn money to be able to provide for my future children... I want to provide a good life like what I am having...I love my family..and they inspire me to create my own...Thank you Mummy&amp;amp; Daddy...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was tutoring my cousin this evening, to guide her on her homework...its not a easy task, to capture her attention as her focus time span is short...it was a good experience for future reference...and teaching a child requires lots of patience..a trait that I am weak at....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was thinking..am i really a mother material?do i have what it takes, the patience?&lt;br /&gt;Something I want so much and something that I am afraid to have...funny how the mind and heart plays with me...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From now on...I m gonna train my patience for a start...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most important is the love and understanding...and pure care from the heart will not go wrong...(Note: Not what you "think" is best for them - because that is what "Kills" the pure hearted them)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for starting a family..not so soon...so much to learn..and the time has not come..it seems for now..one day when I do..I'll let you know if it feels the same as what I'm feeling now...&lt;div

&gt;After working 8 days of long working hours, i was starting to feel so&lt;br /&gt;sick and tired. My good friend volunteered to accompany me to&lt;br /&gt;mid valley...I wanted to cancel the plan,as i was very tired.&lt;br /&gt;but i made it anyway...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was so long ago since i went to watch a movie at the cineplex,&lt;br /&gt;i think the last moviei watched was  "Boltz"?haha...Anyway,&lt;br /&gt;we contemplated on what to watch as myhectic schedule forbid me&lt;br /&gt;to be updated. I made a call to a friend whom i know will be an expert&lt;br /&gt;on this question as she is also the one who had made me a special movie&lt;br /&gt;lover. In a half asleep mode she just said. Benjamin Button! Haha...&lt;br /&gt;so there i go,with a lil doubt (i was tired i was afraid i will fall asleep)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a special movie. Long but certainly not the draggy type.&lt;br /&gt;It was much more interesting than expected. Me and my friend was&lt;br /&gt;amazed. The soundtrack was also great!Though the storyline seems&lt;br /&gt;impossible, but i do agree that there is a kind of sickness which will&lt;br /&gt;make u younger... but definitely not shrinking back into a boy or a baby~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After watching the movie, i felt that the workload and burden on my&lt;br /&gt;shoulders were off. Watching people going thru their trial and turbulence&lt;br /&gt;made me feel that how lucky i am to be in my life. What are my problems&lt;br /&gt;and concerns compared to theirs?And what else could i possibly want&lt;br /&gt;more? I should be thankful and treasure every moment!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend asked me, If i were the character "Daisy" how would i feel?&lt;br /&gt;Life is such, as when you have it you do not treasure it.&lt;br /&gt;When you don't have it you miss it, anyhow i suppose i would feel&lt;br /&gt;pain but in a way contented that i had this man all of my life&lt;br /&gt;loving me in his own way, protecting me and we had such great&lt;br /&gt;moments together!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Signing off,&lt;br /&gt;in great need of sleep...ZZzzz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5641100440510451165-153983553852877487?l=erinojourney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://erinojourney.blogspot.com/feeds/153983553852877487/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://erinojourney.blogspot.com/2009/02/curious-case-of-benjamin-button.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5641100440510451165/posts/default/153983553852877487'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5641100440510451165/posts/default/153983553852877487'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://erinojourney.blogspot.com/2009/02/curious-case-of-benjamin-button.html' title='&quot;the curious case of Benjamin Button&quot;'/><author><name>Erin here!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03891401972488199317</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uWA1puB059M/TBj8WtEG6KI/AAAAAAAAACY/zAuFQNTG_IM/S220/IMG00521-20100523-1914.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5641100440510451165.post-8712979149785848374</id><published>2009-02-13T06:38:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-13T08:09:31.547-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quotes'/><title type='text'>"On my own - Whitney Houston"</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size: 7.5pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: rgb(68, 68, 68);"&gt;"The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: rgb(68, 68, 68);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 7.5pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: rgb(68, 68, 68);"&gt;            the core strength within you that survives all hurt..." -Max Lerner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;What does it mean by growing up?When are we considered as&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;grown ups?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);"&gt;I do wonder.
