Mid Life

When chatting with friends about mid life crisis, we often talk about being forgetful, being neither here nor there, too much to do, too little time and for the women visible signs of aging starts to appear. Growing more facial hairs, getting wrinkles, getting more round in the middle is just some of the things we discovered we are facing. Well at least, I discovered.

Sometimes it is good to still have a mother around to tell you or at least pre-warn you what you are about to face in this stage of life. At this age, sometimes we wonder is it normal to still wonder about things in life or is there something wrong with me ? Having too much uncertainty is certainly not something good. Well, thank god there is Oprah Winfrey and buddies with the good old teh tarik for advises.

Being forgetful certainly will not do much good for the career and it is such a struggle to learn up how to cope with short term memory. Lack of energy is also another obstacle we have to face. Well, one thing for sure, it is not something that we women of the 30's face alone.

A friend reminded me to think happy thoughts just about 2 days ago. So, with so much to deal with, a family, kids and career to juggle .. it's easy for one to forget how to be happy and how to keep your family happy. Ironically, in our pursuit for happiness, how did we come to this stage of so much complications in life ? Is life getting complicated or more sophisticated ?

Whatever happen to simple happy life...
