Thought I will not cry. But treacherous tears didn’t ask for permission…
Packing his stuff, keep asking every other minute: have you packed this? Did you pack that?
- Mom, I’m not going too far and not that you’ll never gonna see me…It’s only a short train trip away from home…
- I know, I know... And these are not the tears of frustration. I am not crying because he is leaving tomorrow and for good.
I can’t tell him, how nervous I am when thinking about how he’s gonna cook for himself, do his laundry, who is gonna ask him “how’s ur day?” in the evening. I am uneasy to think how he’s gonna cope with shopping, studying, managing his time. Who is gonna wake him up in the morning, when he overslept, who is gonna remind him of his appointments, meetings, he arranged but forgot about. Who is gonna care of him if he'd get sick. I’m trying to imagine how he will cope with being alone, with no one to have a chat, to share his day, to ask advice…
We all have gone through the same at some point. And it didn’t seem like bad experience. But guess, my worries are just natural features of motherhood – “breed protection instinct”…It's ok, I can cope with it, for I know he will be fine.

a pseudo-reality it is. to drive at great speed with no traffic. here, that's once in a year event, during holy week when most people are in the provinces vacationing and all malls and offices are closed.

Fly away
High away
Bye, Bye
at first love is protecting, caring for and comforting... in time it builds to letting go filled with the lessons we have taught them... to love them we must set them free so they may stretch their wings and fly...
Yes the life went on for 5 years in the hostel until they closed it.
The funniest thing was my mum never made any good dishes at home in my absence. /never went for a movie. My poor sister (younger) was deprived of many things because I was away. When I come home for my vacation, I was treated like a king. She wanted to give every thing that I had missed during the whole term.
Hmmm this is how much a mum loves her son.
Don’t worry one day you will be happy. You have brought up a good child. He will be a great young man. You will be a proud mum. lol
