2308: The Grass Isn't Greener

Since ages I felt guilty being a full time working mom, and hence never spent enough time with kids when they needed me the most. I literally curse myself badly and consistently, well, till date.

Suddenly from past 3-4 months I am observing something different. I came across many moms, new and experienced, in offline and online modes. They started sharing their thoughts opening, well, not to mention but it was clearly visible in offline mode via their actions. The actions speak louder than words and I became just the observer. In an online mode, via multiple mediums and that too one after the other, via celebrities, well known figures, experienced moms the same stories in different forms popped up in front of me. I was clueless why its happening? And the answer is very simple, it was crystal clear but it took time for me to understand "to pacify me that I am not the only one, there are equally suffered moms and those who are (extremely sorry to say, with due respect and no comparison) worst than what I behaved with my kids at home." This is how it is. The grass only looks greener on the other side from far. That's it. Some are bold enough to agree and others are not.

With so many use cases produced in front of me every now and then, now its my duty to leave that feeling completely aside and live guilt-free life. Whatever happened is history. Let's live and let live now. Can't change the past at all.
