The self recognition of an educated woman in this

I watched a drama, talking about an educated lady,who loved a guy in her university. The guy was very handsome and upbeating, as well as very capable. When he left for another city after the graduation, she also tried to follow him to this strange city. But the guy didn't accept her. How could she earn a living in the big vanity city, she finally became a lover of the head of a gangster. She had rich life from the guy.But one time she confessed that in this city, only except for the house the head of the gangster gave her.She said that was not her home, she didn't have a home in this rich city.

I feel the struggling in her heart that she longed for a real guy to love her.

And the guy from the university also told her to gave up the vanity life in the city and try to earn a living by her own hands.

I also respect a person who can earn a living by their own hands. I know how difficult it is to find a person to share the same interest with you!

So if you have them in your life, value them

Hi Jenny, I started working in my late teens. Attended 1st year of university, went to work in Singapore during the 1st year break, met the father of my kids there. Abandoned my studies and got married the following year. Had my 1st child and the 2nd child followed suit shortly after that. For the past 18 years, I've not been working. I chose to leave my job and take care of the kids full-time. Of course, there were times when I wished I've done otherwise....leave the kids to the nannies and I go out and work. I missed those days when I had my own income to spend on whatever I want without feeling guilty. Ooohhh... I really missed that! sigh
Oh, Mimi, please do not tempt me with your life!laugh

I really wish to be a woman who can have kids and taking care of families. Well, when necessary let the husband goes out working, and taking care of the family!

I have a female friend, who married a French, and they got a son now. Well she has to stay home and takes care of their son. She said the other day that, she wished herself to earn good money like some capable women. I told her: she has her happiness, money is not the only thing!
I think of the woman in the drama, cos, as an educated lady, she knows this is not a life she wants. Even leading a rich life given by a guy, that is not the life she wants.

I choose to work on my own this is a big reason, cos I know in life we need use our own brain to earn a living, supporting your own life. But I still want to look for a guy,and being supportive to each other.

I am still hoping to find that guy!
You see Jenny? There's no pleasing everyone! giggle giggle giggle I personally feel there's no right or wrong in this matter. I'm happy I was able to spend a lot a lot of time with my kids during their formative years. Attended all their school concerts, sports day and what have you not. We were lucky coz their dad provided us a good life. Now that he's no longer in our lives, I've been contemplating of going back to Macau to work. We were there for 6 years and I still have loads of friends there! We'll see. I need to discuss it with my kids. I'm actually very keen to go back to the workforce and earn my own money again. There's so much of shopping could be done in Zhuhai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou!! Oh! Not forgetting Hong Kong too!! giggle giggle
Jenny, I reiterate, with your looks and brains, you would go far. Guys would be flocking at your doorsteps!! wine
Why their dad is no longer in your life?I am a bit confused.

I am happy for you that you can lead a life you want. I understand how difficult it can be if nobody supports the life,it is like a squashed nest. Well, this is the reason why I stood out and worked hard all these years.

Am I doing the correct things? I think so, my own sacrifice just purely saves everyone in my family. I can never desert my baby and mum.

I wish the best for you,Mimi.

So long as you are happy in the life, the form of the family is not important.
lock her door from outside and throw the keys away, outside too.

Indeed you are love
In fact, I don't have a lot of guys sending me mails,some only.

I did refuse most. I don't like to lie.
understand it's hard to walk with all these dresses at once, makes a heavy load on the back, too...comfort
Weird enough anyone will put on the dresses at one go.

How could dresses be a heavy load?

I always think: it is nice a lady try to look nice which means she cares about her looking.
Here in America, when I was a boy, very few mothers had jobs. Sadly, the economy changed after President Kennedy. Many employers didn't want women in the workplace doing any but the most menial clerking or hostess type jobs anyway. President LBJ became convinced inflation would be a good thing and living expenses began to rise. In 1972 our ERA laws passed and women could no longer be refused an employment simply because she was female. By the mid 1970s a single working class person often could not earn enough to support a family. The result was more and more moms became employed. Later when the divorce laws were eased single parents who were also employed also became common.

We have come 180 degrees from when I was a youth (in many ways actually) and today in any working class neighborhood the great majority of women hold full time jobs of all types. Usually only the rich in America are able to afford a wife who stays home all day and produces no income.
I personally think it is good that women can work with their skill or knowledge. It is always good to stand on your own feet.
so bad I feel hungry at midnight here. I made a bit of beef fried quickly on the gas. And feel slightly better. I wrote a bit here.
I have always been in contact with my ex, as we have a daughter together,and also as I have never asked him for money. So that we never quarreled since we finish our relationship. I have been waiting for news for a project I want to do in emirates. I chatted with him on line. And I told him that: I have been very tired being alone as in the past 10 years I have to work hard to support the families. I have nobody to ask help for. Well, he said:" you should look for a guy long time before, look at now, what you have achieved all these years, you have only earned money for your families,you have done nothing else."

I said:" true,I have only established a secured finance for our daughter, my mum and me myself without anybody else's help!" I would also like to do something else,supposedly you shoulder all the financial responsibilities, or all I always pest on you to ask for money, what do you think?" He said:" you would not be able to find me,I would hide in a place nobody can find me"

Then I told him," it is also because you and me are lucky, I am able to support the family myself. If I was like the wife of the other british guy, who would insist on renting a 3 bedroom apartment,squander 30000pounds on rent alone,and every year there would be expensive school fee for their daughter, you would understand you need hide yourself"
Because I know how difficult it is to support the family by one person, so that I understand a lot of ladies can't do it. You need be capable to earn enough money to sort out the life.

I have been working hard over 10 years, so that I am also missing my prime time to find a guy. I seriously wish all the ladies good luck in having a responsible guy with you.

On the other side, I admited as I have to work all these years, I gave up a lot of other things to support the family. I have only supported the family successfully.

But I think I like myself a lot. I know not everyone can do what I have done! Even for a guy to support a family alone in this modern world is not easy.

And a late spring is also a spring. I want to study more and find a guy as I have established my life stably.
blushing cheers
Even when I lost my job for a while,even if I have investment,but I lost a wellpaid job,I had mentioned to my ex, but he would donate money to refugees,than to me and our daughter. I had cut down the living cost to the minimum,as my investment was tied up. It had been a blow to me.

I had struggled out of the swirl. Life is getting better. I overcome the problems step by step.

Sometimes I would ask myself, why I will stick to my conscience and try to work hard, try to help my relatives,my friends,but when I was in trouble, I was so helpless.

I think the education and life experiences just make us like this. Even we face the difficulties in life, we preserve a part of kindness in heart.

I often talked with the other british guy, you need look for warmth in life, cos you can grow out of the depression once you help other people, and vice versa.
Sometimes your straightforward way of talking make me feel a little uncomfortable but I have an infinite respect for the courage of single mother like you.
Wishing you the very best handshake
It doesn't matter how educated the woman. Having children, raising boys to manhood and thereby laying the foundations of the future are more important than any wage-earning.

And it must be said that within the vanity city is where woman are the most self-important about their careerist ambitions and individual desires, and where they are the least interested in securing the future of the Human race.
I think an educated woman,education helps the lady to pursue better career. And in a way, it is easy for an uneducated woman to think less in life.

We say: once you have education, you are able to think in life, then in a way, your time of suffering begins. Well, I think cos you need face a lot of difficult time, and think of different sides, and the suffering just means that!

I spoke out my idea cos I had suffered, and I know how cruel it is to purely walk away and leave a life bill to the other. I might already look down upon this kind of behavior, so please forgive me if did it.

I even now still have this habit. When my daughter wants a pet, no matter a dog, a cat, I always say"no", if i want something, I mean it, and I will take care of it always,especially to a life. I don't like to keep them half way, and throw them out of my door.
No matter how well a person would speak about that, who walk away from shoudering life responsibilities, I in bone, will look down upon them.


I pay the life bills in my life, so that I know usually the responsible side will pay the life bill. And an unbalanced life pattern can continue, it means one side sacrifice a lot.
