Hmm I am guessing you must be a Jane Austen fan as well? Nice UN😊
What a lovely post and so sensibly and beautifully written👏
Sigh I guess I lost my head last night after reading a particularly scathing and very biased post that was floating on the first page of the forum by mistake due to a glitch in my mini Ipad ( Grrr😡 although I love all things Apple this badly behaving side of the devices makes me want to switch to android but sigh my fascination still lingers ) and ended up opening a wrong post instead of the one i was aiming for It practically covered the entire spectrum of the phangurl book on bashing which is an irksome trigger factor for me😡 but have taken a renewed vow never to lose my serenity again Robert the Bruce comes to mind so will try try try again😆
Note to self Do not troll the forum posts when waiting for a conference call to start No good comes out of it
Point 1 Even I felt it for how could he be accorded military protection/hospital facilities when he is not officially a part of his squad again
Point 2 Ok I have a real life experience to share some members in IF know that I have a semi invalid mother and I am currently her primary caregiver Well the first time she was hospitalized in a near life or death scenario was something that I will never forget in terms of family dynamics and reactions
When our GP mentioned how imperative it was she receive medical treatment immediately I was about to break down and tried to seek comfort from my dad who for some strange reason slowly backed away and refused to accompany his wife to the hospital and instead chose to drive back home leaving my bro and me at the clinic We are grown ups so we were in a position to fend for ourselves in case you are wondering over my dads actions there is a reason why which I will come to later
I stood frozen and then turned to my brother and realized he was completely shattered and crying and shaking so right at that moment I shoved all that I was feeling inside and decided to take charge of the situation and I don't know from where I got this strength but I was able to calmly and unemotionally go ahead with what had to be done in terms of treatment for my mum and dealing with physicians on my own so Paro's reaction was not something I found strange it was something I had already experienced albeit in real life in fact how she handled it once the initial shock wore off was pretty much how it happened with me except I did not feel like strangling any one except the disease
In the case of my dad I got back home once all the admission formalities were over only to see him sit on her favorite chair and look completely dazed staring into space So I guessed it right then he was in a state of shock and grief Ironically I am the youngest but strongest in my family So yes whenever there is a crisis in the family I tend to lead and take charge and then when it is over I give into my emotions
Soap world is something surreal and these kinds of illogical twists happen even in Western soaps Bold and Beautiful comes to mind for mindless mayhem and who could ever forget Dallas after killing of one of the main leads they brought Bobby back the next year and passed off the entire period post his death as dream on the part of his wife Pam Ok I used to like watching vintage soap dramas online till real life became too hectic
