Private World of IMRIZ

I hate surprises. Even hubby knew that. There were times in the past (boyfriend/girlfriend stage) he threw quite few surprises for me and it became the cause of our petty quarrels. For all things he plan to give me, whether I would specifically ask for it, or, that, he would want something to buy me a gift. He would surely asked me what is it I like. We are two married people who have lots of “irreconcilable” differences. We have never tried to patch up our differences. We have gone tired trying to change each other to become the person truly different from what we really are. Instead, we try to understand each other. Accepting each other’s flaws and imperfections.

Nobody is perfect. I, for one, is the worse person one would meet. Motherhood has made my world confined to the four corners of our little home. I get to see friends or relatives when I would walked out this small room, away from this computer, gasping for fresh air. But contact with other people is very short and limited. A personal choice. Not that I am being snobbish. Just a choice.

I do have friends, though. Many. And, I hate them, too when they would throw me a surprise My friend and sissy-in-law from down under sent me a small package containing Clinique products. It is  no surprise that she would regularly sent us stuff. Even making a call to inform us that there’s a package coming. Thus, the package for me came with much surprised and I was in awe Especially the message on the card…

Sweet!

Though the messages were somehow too “flattering”. Modesty aside, I do not deserve such accolades. I am just a simple person. Trying to be a good wife. Taking care of my kids. Managing a home with much love and fervor to ensure a harmonious relationship with every member of my family. And, leave a legacy to my kids and their families to come.
