When I was about 10 years ago, on one particularly stressful summer vacation, I decided to take a very controversial position against my mother and sided with an estranged aunt, who generally was causing havoc in our common ancestral household. My mother ofcourse was devastated. How could a child, spawned by her take a position against her? Being the shrewd mother that she was, she decided to do, absolutely nothing. I discovered many things about my mother that summer vacation. I was young and she was patient enough to wait for me to grow up. I was unimportant and powerless but she was willing to be tolerant of my opinions in life. I was dependent on her but threatening me into submission was not an option. Yes, I learnt many things about my mother that summer but I learnt more important lessons about living in a democracy. selma ____________________________________________________________________________________ Shape Yahoo! in your own image.
