To mum

I love you, Mum. Very much.

And I know you love me beyond everything else.

All my life, I have live in the security of parental love. Unlike, some friends and relatives, I never have any cause to doubt both your love for me. Never.

But, is there some way to please both of us? Someway that we can both be happy with the way we are both living.

Contentment is one way. But, how do I balance contentment with a need for growth and a desire for independence and to see more of the world?

Compromise is another. But, there must be meeting of mind. In this case, it seems that I still need to work harder at it before a plausible solution can be found.

Meanwhile, I need to work harder to build up my savings and build a group of strong emotional support for you while I am gone. Guess teaching you to pick up modern technology (internet, msn, email and webcam) is a good idea too.
