I'm sure all mothers alike will think the same as I do. That we do many things out of love and our desire to please, certainly not to show off or get a commendation/award. Just when I thought that all that I do go unappreciated and my good deeds are overlooked and whatever I do seems to be wrong, I read this. For one rare moment, I feel appreciated as a person not because Saggs painted such a 'wonderful picture of me' but because she understands my position and sees my true intentions. Other people can see me as Jekyll and Hyde all they want but so long as my conscience is clear, I don't give a hoot. It is hard to sometimes but I will try.
Syl, thank you for your special blog entry which I appreciate alot. I don't need any awards from you. Having found you as a friend, I feel truly blessed and thank you for extending your friendship to me.

Awww, you don't need to thank me. Those were heart-felt words.
Enjoy your time back in SGP and there will always be people you can't please esp when it comes to spending *enough* time with them. But you know what? The fact that so many people are jumping over themselves trying to meet you means you've been dearly missed? :)
See you back here soon! xx
Ros, I absolutely agree with your words of "we do many things out of love and our desire to please (people we love), certainly not to show off..."
There will always be people out there who choose to think you are showing off, esp if you are doing things "too well" since they feel threatened by your achievements... I do not think these people are bad by nature but jealousy is human nature which can spout gossips and ruin relationships...
It is difficult for people to see your true intentions sometimes but most importantly, your own conscience is clear... I'm still working towards the "don't give a hoot" part though... haha...
