When everyone loves you...and you move away...

It is an interesting phenomenon... the love of the family.

It is such a privilege to be loved and remembered by the family. They care. They demand. They bless and persuade... and feel let down if there is no response.

Oh what an honour to be at the receiving end of such genuine love. Such goodness. Such nobility... just the feeling of belongingness is so great.

And yet, i feel at ease. i could have participated with the family. But there are other things to be balanced. No selfish interest in play. Just balance.

To walk away from a service opportunity...and then another... and to think of giving up the lottery chance of yet another one so that perhaps someone else may benefit... what a different state of mind this is... (and perhaps, what foolishness!)

i have changed. And yet... I AM.
