Since the day of 18 July when my youngest child has gone independence, I seem to have lost the motivation of the writing blog. I call this symptom "the empty nest syndrome". What is the symptom like? Loss of life objective; loneliness; feeling of losing something. It is not a pleasant experience.
Both of my two children went independence at their age of 26. In the past 31 years of our marriage life having two children to feed, teach, train, everyday and any moment, must be a big load of household work. Apart from the work of what we do for a living, this household work is a voluntary and no pay job. Though it is indeed tough, we have been accustomed to it, and once the load is discharged after so many years, I am not feeling relieved but am actually confused. No one to lecture when I found some new life issues to teach them; no one to share when we made special food.
Never mind. we are adapting to the new life style, and the empty nest syndrome will certainly be fading away itself.
