My friend wants to help me heal my diabetes. She believes its root cause is the lack of sweetness of life. So, she sked me one question. “What is your sweetness and bitterness?” Her question gave me an opportunity to analyze myself.
I’ve thought about her question. I needed to ponder about that.
When I was single, my life was busy. I had some jobs with the high rank, high pay, and heavy responsibility. I learned a lot through my jobs; about human relationships, communication techniques, and job’s technical skills. I was constantly stressed out for making money to pay my bills.
Since I was not engaged with any serious love romance relationship, I had freedom. I could travel to anywhere domestic and international, whenever I wanted, wherever I wanted, without making any plans. I enjoyed making many friends. I was a free spirit. I was a free bird.
So, my life while I was single was that of extremely dynamic. In such hectic and busy days, I envied for a wife/mom staying at home as a homemaker.
Now my life is completely different from before. I have gained that status I envied in the past. I am a wife/mom staying at home homemaker. I currently don’t have jobs. Thus, I am nobody without any status, pay, nor work stress/responsibility. My married life is that of static.
When I think of my sweetness and bitterness in life, I always have them both. In my younger days, I had my sweetness and bitterness specifically fits for the situation. I like my past years of full of adventures and excitements.
Do I miss my past dynamic years? No. I love my current static life with my family. My current life style and family are priceless.
My answer lies in there. I am full of sweetness in life, in my current life.
