Comments on: Confessions of a Hausfrau: What the Bloody Hell Happened? http://rimafauzi.com/blogs/?p=1968 Indonesian by birth, world citizen by choice, working and living in Brussels, Belgium. A lost soul among 6 billions of others, trying to make sense of life..

Are you of Arab descent?  Anyway, I find your post very interesting because it mirrors exactly the way I feel about my life at the moment!  I was a career woman, single, on the go and had more ambitions.  Once I got married, and had a couple of offspring, all ambitions came to a screeching halt!!! I love my kids and would do anything for them...yes this sounds so cliche...however, my own aspirations are on the back burner for a while. But I'm about the same age as you are. I feel old, tired, my hubby does not look at me the same way as he used to (sigh) :(,  worthless and not anything near being a little hottie!  By the way, you look great! Very pretty! So, anyway, the difference between you and I , your a singer/song writer, talented, can cook and write mangnificently! All the best!  :)</EM><div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('34187','najma'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('34187','najma','<EM>Hi Rima,<\/EM>\r\n<EM><\/EM> \r\n<EM>May I ask a question?

I too ever wonder what has happened. From being a career woman who became a senior manager and a department head at the age of 32, who had up to 8 meetings a day and oversaw a billions of rupiahs budget, who changed greetings with CEOs from multinational companies and alike, who who was "busy", "somebody",  and "important", I now am settled for being a hausfrau. My daily plan would be arranging menu for tonight's dinner and my meetings would most likely be with people from electricity or gas company and my battle would be calling internet company protesting the extra charge they put on the bill. But I'm content with what I have now (after months of struggling to accept the reality!) and I would not want to change it even for a bit. I don't have to deal with annoying vendors, I could get up late, I could write, I could travel, I could have long lunches with friends, and many more.And you're right that people might envy you. I do envy you! I wouldn't know how to prepare meals for 150 people - I'd curl up and die! I wish I had at least half of your ability to produce great and quirky dishes. I wish I could sing and write songs like you do. I wish I had what you have with your brother. I wish I lived in Europe! I wish I had hair or boobs like yours! I wish I could write something funny and witty like this post! And the list continues... :) <em>"Wah nit, thanks for the kind words.. But you've got nice boobs, hair and other things too.. heheheh bener yah, the grass is always greener on the other side, it seems. But anyway, I think deep down inside we both are happy with ourselves no matter what.
