If…

… your own Mom talks to you about some love/life stuff, then asks for your opinion/advice (which you give your 2 cents), then considers following it (your advice, that is)… should one be worried?

I mean I’m pretty sure I gave a really straightforward opinion based on my views (i.e. brutally honest and unnerving to otherwise “innocent” individuals) – it just feels really weird how the tables have turned as far as “seeking wisdom” goes; lalo na when the main difference between us had always been our views on life.

I don’t know if it’s a good or bad thing; if I’ve “grown up” enough to actually “put some sense” in a person who I would normally seek advice from for most of my formative years – or if the world has become that messed up that it takes someone like me to make sense of it. ¹ Because, while traditional views may be considered naive this day and age, there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with them; they just don’t apply [that well] anymore, that’s all

Perhaps it’s the latter, who knows. I guess if anything, it just proves that the one certain thing you can count on is change.

Hope it turns out ok for her; at her age, that “aspect” of life shouldn’t even be an issue anymore. I guess that’s what happens when traditional values are met head on with the actual reality of life.
