Unexplained!


Today I was a little bit sceptical about life as a whole… happened to read one of my friends blog and depression creeped into my mind like a bacteria and its gnawing on my mind/heart. I mourn with others.. is that a good thing??? “never” is what my hubby says. Similar things bothered me, 4-5 days back and literally I lost my sleep. I wake up at 1 am and 4 am and used to walk around the house. I used to say things about it when I was half asleep and my hubby got really worried. He took an appointment for my insomnia and one day before that , ie yesterday, I slept w/o waking up 4 times in the middle of night. So finally I got over that…


Now its again…my mom is again admitted to hospital…couldn’t even talk to me. I would love to bring her here with me, but she is so frail that she cant withstand the cold climate here. And miles apart from me, with no other kids for her, to look after, I am so helpless. I feel guilty for coming here, with her there. As they know that I will make a fuss, they won’t call me up and tell anything. If I miss her call, I have to assume that she is sick. And almost every time, my assumption will be correct…

I don’t know what to write…her life got wasted for me… and I cant give anything in return.

Every single day she called me, and i will be damn busy with wrk and i cut  her call very quickly.. today when she didnt call, i shud have realised  how mean i was, with her!

NOTE [19 July] : i called her today morning. she is fine.. she is recovering!!!
thanks guys for ur support !

  9. Swathi, please don't say her life got wasted. She invested her time and attention in you... to turn you into a fine person that you are. Thoughtful, sensitive and caring. Being a mom I can vouch how much pride our hearts hold when we see all our hardwork turn into fine invidual human beings.

    And don't feel bad about taking her for granted... just do whatever you can in little or big ways to let her know that you love her.

    Swathi, wishing you happiness and a speedy recovery to your mom. You are in my prayers. Take care my friend. Trust in God and be positive. I am sure if your mom got a whiff of this mail she will be one sad person... so you better snap out of that depression. Cheer up!

    Take care,

    Much love,

    Sab (your fellw virgo friend)

  11. I agree with the others, NOTHING a mom does for her kids are ever "wasted" so you shouldn't even feel like that... I wish you didn't feel like that. I'll be praying for your mom also and sending good thoughts her way... but just remember... her life was NOT "wasted" on you... her life was spent loving and caring for you, and making sure you get what you deserve out of life, as all good mothers do. **HUGS**

  13. hmmm...am not gud at saying comforting words. But as far as I know u thru ur blog, u r a very strong lady who has seen tougher times and sailed thru. As someone said...we all get the most appropriate 'crosses' to carry thru our lives...its neither too heavy nor too light. Just apt. Thats life.And u know much more about life than most of us.
    Expecting a happy post very soon. Your mom will just be fine. Lots of prayers..

  15. hey swathi,
    am a silent reader of your blogs and find it very interesting...come on...cheer up your amma will be fine.

  16. As how Sab and Cheesespread a.k.a Manu has said, never say that she wasted her life for you. She is really proud to have a daughter like you, I'm sure. Ask her and you will know how right I and several others on this blog page are.

    And I am so glad that she is doing fine now. I hope you will change the appearance of your blog, now. Pls send her my special regards and lots of kisses and hugs.
