I don't think I ever had any picture in my mind as to what it would be like,except being a dancer,which I did for a while on ships.

I never expected to be happily married with kids,or to be widowed,I definitely did not see myself raising 3 kids in a foreign country..

And I never in a million years thought I'd turn out so homely as I have!In fact I pretend to be a bit wild most of the time,cos i still can't quite believe my contented life revolves around being a good mother,cooking lovely traditional meals,and doing housework!

Never dreamed to be a single mother, far away from my friends, working for money and not liking the job, bad communication with my own mum...I could think of few more things that make my life a failure.

"Work(KARMA) is important not the result(the fruit)"- BHAGBAT GITA (The holy book of Hindu Philosophy)says this. also true "work is worship". All are right but is this necessary for our mother earth? I think not. But essential for life span from birth to death.

They say that our life is what me make out of it, but when you have to sturggle with the circumstances that come along, there is so much time left to do things to follow the life plan. It is not my fault. Thanks for cheering up, but I am content with my life even though it is nothing I hoped it to be.
