Some years ago I worked far away from family and friends. Not married yet and no worries. I even worked in the dessert and made acquaintances with the camels and still okay.... no problem....Now when my boss mention the other day I had to go away (overseas) for a few days, i began to worry. Oh, oh! what about my kids? Who's going to take them to school? who's going to cook dinner? can my husband cope? Should I call my mother to come to KL ? Or should I take them with me?
I used to know a couple of women who left their children back home and worked somewhere else and not meeting their children for months. I never thought it strange back then, but reflecting back, I don't think I could ever have done that! How I have changed.
