Metamorphosis

Once upon a time, I wished there were more hours in the day because I had to

• work
• supervise my children's homework
• make sure the household was running smoothly
• make sure we had meals on the dinner table
• sleep
• have some kind of leisure time/activity (if at all)

Now, I find myself wishing there were more hours in the day because I

• preside over the parent organization in my son's school
• quilt
• get body/foot massages
• have lunch with my friends
• shop
• play mahjong
• watch the latest movies & TV series on DVD
• volunteer in school
• and soon, take painting lessons

If the Me of today could go back in time and tell the Me of yesterday about my current lifestyle, I am sure my previous Me would scoff & say,"Ha! If that ever happens, I will eat my hat!"

I am thankful for what I have had the chance to experience, and for what I have.
