Destructive Relationships

You'd think that a person has got it made but when you scratch the surface a lot can be uncovered. ML has faithfully served her husband and family for almost all of her life. We go to her house once a year and she is a picture of happiness and gratitude. Raised the old school way, she'd never think of disobeying her husband to follow her passion.

At times I wonder, what IS her passion? I guess she makes time to do her favourite things- I would surmise that gardening may be one of it (or not- I'm the worst reader of people). She would find the time to garden after she has cooked breakfast for her family, babysit her boisterous grandchildren, cleaned the house & pretty much ran the world.

She wanted to come with Umi to Kelantan, never having been there before. Yet she did not get clearance from hubby- one day without ML will render the family crippled I suppose.

In her own way she has found fulfilment, doing what she does best... serving others. And that may not be a bad thing, actually (or is it?)
