The last time I read the chicken soup for the soul series was when I was in secondary sch. I love their short stories, inspiring, humourous, touching...Its one of those books that you can relax while reading the short stories..
Recently, not sure why its back in the trend again, Popular is having sales on the series and I took the chance to buy "The Magic of Mother & Daughter" title. This is especially close to my heart, having being beri close to my mum, sharing nearly everyting with her and vice versa..
When I was pregnant back then, I was secretly hoping for a gal, wishing the trait of close mother & daughter ties will pass on to my next generation, I too want to become my gal's mum & best fwen, just like my mum & I...
Although I had lost my child, I had not lost hope in getting pregnant again, reading the many stories inside makes me reflect on my relationship with my mummy, some are similar to wat we went thru, some shed light on how the older generation feel on certain issues, some can prepare me to better handle my daughter shd I be blessed with 1..
Reading it, lightens up my mood while savouring the stories of others, at time, reminding me of my own...
I hope, 1 day, I will be able to note down the little stories of my daughter and I, remembering the details of her growing up, from a baby to toddler, to a school child, to teenager and finally leaving me to start another family of her own.. This, would be the greatest thing in life, for a daughter is a mother's gender partner, her closest ally in the family, an extension of her self :)
