What a long time!

Location: HCM

Mood: Happy but too free

Finally I can log into my blog. Its been so long that I thought they had terminated my account :P

I chatted with a longtime friend today, saw her online and msg her. We had a short chat, but it left me with deep thoughts.

I have always been an advocate of working women. I support and firmly believe that all women should work, for their own independence, freedom and financial capability. Now now now... I am not a sexist, nor am I a 'big woman'. I just feel that women should have their own careers too. I know many people (including my own relatives) will rebuke me for this statement, but wth, this is my stand.

One day, when I have my own family, I will take care my children, be a hands-on Mum. But at the same time, I will continue to develop my career, because financial independence is equally important. In this ever-changing and constantly evoluting world, who can guarantee me stability and certainty? Who will tell me that he will earn and provide for me forever? Who will not leave me and be by side through all good and bad?

At the end of the day, only us can provide the best guarantee to ourselves.
