About growing old and peeing in the sea

Sick as I was I stayed at home today.My mum stayed at home too.She was worried.
Not about me.About our cat.
He doesn't feel very well these days.
Grandma came too.
She is not that good either.
And we were sitting,three generations of women together.
Me,my mum,my grandma.And my cat.
Grandma and the cat were sitting,with distant eyes,in silence.
Mum was preparing tea for both of us.
Grandma was staring at me for a while,but I wasn't sure she was actually looking at me.
I wish I knew what was going on in her head.
But she's semi-deaf and my throat hearts when I speak.
Mum told me she wishes she'll never be in my grandmas' condition.
My mother acts as if she were her mother's mother.
And the weather was perfect outside.
And I was thinking about the other day.
How we both didn't admit what we really feel.
Like peeing in the sea.
No one admits it.
But I don't believe there's a single one who has never done it.
Personally,I love it.
My mum is growing older.
But you know what they say.
We don't stop playing because we grow old;we grow old because we stop playing.

Είναι πραγματικά υπέροχο φίλη μου:)
Μαρέσει πάρα πολύ αυτό που γράφεις! Και εγώ συχνά κάθομαι με την μαμά μου και την γιαγιά μου και σκέφτομαι ότι είμαστε από 3 ξεχωριστές γενιές...Και πραγματικά επειδή και οι 2 μου γιαγιάδες είναι πολύ καλά στην υγεία τους,προσπαθώ να τις χαίρομαι όσο πιο πολύ μπορώ! Και σου λέω νμα κάνεις και συ το ίδιο!
Περαστικά σου ευχομαι και καλά τύχη με το άλλο θέμα που έχεις(αν κατάλαβα σωστά...)
Πολλά πολλά φιλιά!!
Και αν θες πέρνα από το μπλογκ μου που έχω γκιβεγουέι:))

This is a beautiful, sentimental post. I often sit at dinner when I go home with my mother and nan and although both are well in health and the rest, I sometimes look at them and wish gosh I wish I was more like her in this way and then sometimes I think, gosh I wish I never end up like her in that way. Life as you said keeps going no matter how we lead it, just never stop playing the game of life.

i love and hate this feeling. when you see your future reflected in another person. a future that you are not even certain would happen. it's such a surreal, inexplicable feeling.

i hope you are all well.
