More bad news

Oprah says on her show that God never gives us more than we can handle. I disagree with that. I got an email from a friend at work whose husband is dying of cancer that she quit her job yesterday, planned her husband's impending funeral with a funeral director, and will move to her sister's home in another state I wonder if I will hear from her after she moves. Physical separation usually means emotional separation (not always). To me, this friend not only eagerly read each chapter after I finishing it, she was a new perspective on my mother. They are in the same generation and her children are about my age. A lot of my mother's point of view is foreign. I rebelled against what I was suppose to be, Mom did not. I think that it makes Mom sad that she did not fulfil her dreams, so she pushed them onto us. At least, she accepts I would make a lousy housewife, even with a rich man. What Mom did not plan was me having my own dreams. Post later. Good-bye!
