55 years down the road and what have I done to be proud of as a person, a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, a friend, a colleague? How many people whose lives I have made a difference? How many foes have I gathered, consciously or otherwise?
How many times, during my tenure years as a mother have I made my children proud of me as their mother; on how many occasions have they wished for someone better? How many times during my years as wife have I pleased my husband, on how many occasions did it crossed his mind that this is all one big mistake?
Have my actions been too demanding on all those around me? Are my words offensive to hear? Have I pushed myself too far with my demands? Have I listened enough?
How relevant am I ?
I wonder. Truly
