At Night After Dinner...

we relax and strike conversations with our companion as regards our future plans and our past failures.
At this time, I talk mostly about my children, the farm, what I hope to achieve in the near future and about my failures in the past - like what brought them about. When I feel like I have enough of it, the shift takes place and my companion/s will have to do the talking. if there is still more time after the talk, we touch on our families and friends and on our hopes and dreams.
Talks of this kind which go about and around lazily at this kind hours are very relaxing, really relieves stress. How many among us here have this thing going also? Do you feel that it is rewarding to be sharing our innermost thoughts and feelings with our home companions?

you are lucky enough to have companions for such talks..i feel many times that i have someone to hear how i feel and what i want at times, but children are small and hubby is businessman, though he is good enough he comes late, and only serving food and only few very necessary talks are there and then from morning again the same routine...children, school, studies, food, daily chores...ufff...its so boring and exhausting at times....i feel like my children grow up soon so that i can be friends with them..and they understand me sometimes.

i get your point, eshaan. however, do not underestimate your kids. they will understand you if you talk to them at their level. i have always done so from the time that i have my child out from my womb. now, they have grown up to be very understanding and so very close to me. just simply keep on talking about things fit for a child to hear. your hopes, your dreams, your aspirations in life will be worth sharing with them. do this with showers of hugs and kisses for your children time and again. then, at a time when you most do not expect any response, you will get not only one nor two, but a flood of them. you will find in the end, that your children will easily open up to you in the near future, just about anything that has happened to them and about anything that runs in their minds or hearts. try this, i have been doing this since i had from baby out.
