I had to postpone my much-awaited trip to the US. There are so many loose ends to tie up together before I go. Most of them are a mother’s worries.
But cousin Linda is much more excited than I. We may be taking the trip together, after a Davao City visit. I’ll be gone a full month, something I’d never done before. Linda’s emailed me lots of tips for the US trip: clothes to wear, places to go, things to do.
But what’s touching is that she is doing everything to make the trip memorable and all worth it. She has waved away my anxieties, apprehension and hesitation….and just pushed me with a “come on, you can do it!”
So maybe I should really go, finally. This is could be the trip of a lifetime.
