Maturedom.

Had a good heart-to-heart talk/adult conversation with my eldest brother Chris just now over Skype. Im just happy that at least he also understands how it is to be working abroad and earning more than the minimum wage. And that he supports me on the decisions that im making and going to make. And how we both feel about Mommy's being there also, and how i fully understand his side as well. We, my brother and I, always had this weird eldest-youngest relationship. When i was stull a kid and he was still living at home, i would get countless scoldings and spanks from him. But by the time he started working, he began treating us nicely already. I would never forget the weekend trips that he used to arrange for me and Tintin. And now, we have mature conversations already, and that he is seeing me as an adult already, not that little brat he used to displace his frustrations on.

Im thankful for tonight because it's like he has opened a part of himself to his sister. Whatever it was that we talked about will remain just between us, im just happy that im not alone in the feeling of being an OFW. :)
