Being a single child, I have fortunately or unfortunately enjoyed the incubator atmosphere for a long time. And you bet, it hurts when you come out of that comfort zone. However, I wish my parents had let me go earlier. It would have made things easier for them when they had to part with me after my marriage.<BR/>But then that’s why parents are sweet, isn't it? :)<BR/>Just couldn't help leaving a comment on this wonderful post.
