Falling Into Place

I am feeling optimistic today and this rarely happens, so here goes...


There will come a time in one's life when everything seems to fall into place. I have always believed that things happen for a reason. Sometimes, the reasons aren't clear enough. Sometimes, the reasons just make life more confusing and heartbreaking. Time can be a friend, if you want it to be.


Yesterday, I accompanied my parents to the hospital. It was my mother's birthday and I didn't want her to spend her special day alone while waiting for my father's operation to finish. My diabetic father had his cataracts removed from his right eye. The operation was successful and we will be facing a few weeks of adjustment at home. My mother and I never really bonded that way I bond with my girl friends or sister. Sometimes, I prefer to be quiet when I'm with her because I can't seem to gauge her moods and/or perceptions in some instances. But sometimes, quiet time is enough. Lately, I haven't been a really good daughter and spent time with them because work always takes my time away. I know that'll change soon.


I had a chat with my best bud today, after a long time of not talking since she's halfway around the world. I was glad we talked. I was surprised about the main topic of our conversation but I was so happy to listen to her. I miss her a lot.


I had a feeling that I may be lost now but eventually, everything will fall into place. I may not be able to find a purpose right now but I am ok. I am happy, most of the time. I have people who love me, care for me and trust me. I may not have a "love life" (haha!), but I am good. Everything will be ok. I just know it. =)
