The fact that my parents came from the same sort of families. Both their parents cleaned up, and thought all things for them, on what to do. They both had to start work early and had no time to really learn how to run a garden, a household and themselves. And when they met, married and tried the life they were supposed to live, they both ended up with ZERO self confidence due to too high expectations from parents so everything became a mess. And by making the situation worse they put each other down with constantly complaining about themselves both as persons themselves and between each other.
I compared them with two persons in a boat, with no creativity, 1000ds of tools to help themseves to get to the beach, but instead of picking the driftwood to paddle home and using the tool to get water out of the boat (which is 100% dry by the way) they take in water into the boat and make it sinkable almost. This picture of how they were, made my parents laugh for well over 2 minutes. Guess I nailed it down correctly. Hahahaha
This sounds really terrible, but the absurd situation became so funny and so clear to me today that it made me smile for a long time.
Somethimes people are too alike! Don't you think?
