I know what you mean. Sometimes I talk freely to my parents and siblings...other times (and indeed, this is quite often), stuff is on a need-to-know basis.
But I hope I never come to ignore them, take them for granted, or make them a secondary priority in my life.

the future makes me anxious too. But I guess that's when faith comes in, and you just trust that things will turn out okay, or that you'll have the strength to be able to get through whatever circumstances are thrown at you. You'll have that strength.

Does it ever feel to you that "home" doesn't really feel like home anymore? Kingston is more my home now, and I suppose I'm lucky that I have no financial dependence on my parents (with the exception of my RESP for tuition.) But at the same time, despite the fact its hard to talk to them about things, (since parents can never truly be friends, they still have to be parents, even when your parents are divorced, and they sometimes compete for your love via friendship...) I do feel that I am blessed too, to have such a wonderful and caring family.

I suppose I am lucky too, to know where I want to go. Perhaps if they ask you next time, and you don't have an answer, say "somewhere good. I don't know exactly where, but I can tell you its going to be good." Because that's true, you are Eleasa, and anywhere you go will be good. (just make sure to sound sincere and not insulting, but I'm sure you knew that anyway.)

ELEASA!!!

You came to OTTAWA?? Hahahaa... seriously.. I live here and I've never had a beavertail. I guess I've never had the "Canadian Experience" ;) How was winterlude?? Didn't get to go this year:( I was actually in Scarborough for a bit this past weekend though;) (for my "Asian experience"??!!) This was as exotic as it got for me.

Hmmm.... you know... growing up older in general makes living with family difficult. And fighting with siblings is definitely something I can relate to. Sometimes, relationships can actually get better with distance... but then I guess it can really slow down communication and we forget each others' bad habits. Hope the rest of your week went alright.

Blessings
