I Am Lucky

I have recently "offended" (merely by talking rationally) some of my relatives, especially one of my aunts, who has been treated as the "head of clan", who "worship" Chinese "filial piety", who had been meddle all my business (my mother's legacy) because of her "responsibility" to me, her "love" me. After all of these troubles (not done yet!), I only feel that I am so lucky that I am living in a place that is so far away from China - a place that money and power (political/ideological) dominate all people's lives.

    There are some things which are a part of us - and some things which we are free to break away from! I know that it has been difficult for you to break away from some of the traditions you have felt stifling - and I offer my support! I know how hard it is to feel that you have offended family. But you will find a freedom, too, in your choice.
