   dim sum lunch @ min jiang good wood organised by me
invited guests are. dad and mom. C:
 
after about a few more non stop shots...
nah she didn't say stop.
i told her 'mom you look better in candid shots'
dad agreed too.
so we updated ourselves about what i'm doing.
poolside @ goodwood
pretty nice place to chill; very intimate
i'm pretty happy with the outcome
you see i'm 23(17)
i had a plan that when i left the house, i would expose myself more to the elements
so that one day. stronger(as a person) i am more than able to take care of those who have taken care of me.(with finances too)
i foresaw some signs earlier and this was my solution.
and this organised dim sum lunch, and me serving them, is also part of it. i did the bookings, the timings, the everything.
it's a step forward. a new step forward.
my step forward. that definitely includes them.
i'm glad that they are open to where i'm leading them to.
this wasn't like any normal family lunch/dinner meeting.
where quarrels, grunts, disagreements, impositions, disapproval, dissupport, would pepper and raise storms in tea cups.
no. it was light hearted. pleasureful. cheery. open. communicative.
i want control in the family.
i want to be involved in the planning process.
i want my opinions to matter.
not because i'm power hungry.
but this is me literally being part of the family.
like i was telling 2 close peeps.
i have much more plans in store.
you could say. i didn't accept what i had.
i chose to take it forward.
and i praise god.
that i can say.
job done.
nonetheless this is but only a first step.
i guess sometimes you need to be apart to appreciate another more. as in not take the other for less.
and i guess sometimes you have to put your foot down so others know not to mess with your opinions.
and i guess i had to take these steps.
so that we can remove all the nonsense and crap.
that our times together can be joyful, open, a safe haven where we can feel safe.
where they can see the returns of their efforts, that their son's more than able to take care of himself and also take care of them and also involve them in his life
where i can begin to move our 'together' life forward and prepare for the change of taking-care-of parade in due time.
i'm ready.
i'm ready to steer this ship.
i'm ready to bring us higher.Tags: family, outings/places/activities
