Happiness

Happiness is not just felt when good things fall on ourselves.

Happiness is also felt when good things befall other people. I'm very very happy over the amount of money that has been raised for Little Charmaine when I read My Paper this morning.

I pray hard that she will be able to get the necessary treatment and live a life filled with goodness and of cos good health. I also pray that her family members will also be happy and able to cope well financially.

Last but not least, I pray hard that all my family members are in good health and will be happy in whatever they do especially my precious Allyson :))

A Decision Made

After 7 months of deciding whether I should continue with what i'm doing, I've decided to stay on. Financially it's not advisable to just take off and not bother about anything. I want to give my child whatever that are within my means and to make sure I take good care of her. I can't afford to just leave what I'm doing to pursue what I really want. It's not rational.

Many of us are like that I guess. We must take a look at our priorities. My priority is to make sure my child is well taken care of and to make sure that none of us in the family including grandparents need to go through hunger pangs. Thus, no matter how unhappy I may be in what I'm doing, I shall just hang on and think of the big picture. I shall always look forward to going home to my little girl and leave whatever unhappiness behind.

Unhappiness shall not step into my home! I shall learn from others who are still going on strong even they are going through bad times in their lives.

From a mother to another mother

My hubby chanced upon Little Charmaine's blog just last night. We loaded her blog up onto my blog. Only today did I really sit down and read what her mother wrote in the blog as well as view pictures of this fiesty little girl.

As a mother to a 2-year-old, I can understand what Cynthia is going through. When Allyson went for blood test becos of high fever, her screams really chilled my heart. Jasper nearly cried seeing her writhed in pain. Of cos, this little pain is nothing compared to what Little Charmaine is going through. Imagine, both of us felt like crying seeing our little girl suffer when her little finger gets pricked for blood test, what more for another mother to see own little girl go through all sorts of tests and chemotherapy.

When I aborted my second child, I couldn't forgive myself even till now. On one hand, I had no right to take away her little life. On the other hand, I couldn't bear to see her suffer if I were to bring her to this harsh world knowing the type of condition she suffered from. Both Jasper and I clenched our painful heart and told my gynae our decision to go for abortion.

I salute Cynthia for being so strong even having to go through a broken marriage and taking care of her two precious ones.

No mother wants to see their children suffer. No mother wants to be away from their children.

Cynthia, hang in there! I'm sure things will go on well for Charmaine. Have faith!
Little Charmaine, you must grow up to love mummy even more!
