And thank you so much for your words... It's exactly as you've said, our mothers are just humans and sadly we just won't always be able to like their character .. I get paranoid as well, because the last thing I'd want to end up like is her (that sounds mean >_<). But it's her career that made her turn crazy and miserable as well.. Which is why it's so important to do something that you love.
@Rep thank you so much!! As you've said, I really want to show them and prove them wrong ^_^! Do you have a career you are happy with!? Btw it was a negative rep as well lol xD~
Great to hear about your sister.
My trip was great. I need to do that more. Met up with some friends at the summit. I posted pictures of it in various places here. Did that directly from the mountain top as I had better cell and data reception there than at home.
I was able to relax and reflect a little bit, get back in touch with who I am at my core.
