3 months ago when my parents first came I was nervous...I knew they will be staying for a while because of their medical check ups...I thought to myself I will miss my privacy and space...and I honestly did...after all I have been living alone for a very long time and I'm used to things done in a certain way...but since my parents left yesterday I feel so empty...my place is not the same anymore...I miss joking with my dad and playing cards with him...I miss reading the newspapers to him...he usually corrects my Arabic and makes fun of the way I read...I miss going with my mom to the grocery store and talking about random things...I miss our little trips to the mall...I honestly never thought I will miss them this much already!
Their visit made me realize how close I got to them and I discovered things I never knew about them before. Time has passed me by and I haven’t realized how much I missed out on their lives and I’m not planning to miss anymore…I want to be home more than ever in my life for my family…I want to be there when they need me…because I know how much they need me now…I will do my best to be back and I promise them and I promise myself I won’t spend more time away from them again.
But you know after saying all the sentimental stuff I said...I still will need my space when I get back home...hahahaha I just hope I will get it!

ay girl, i hear ya well. Don't be so attached to them when you come one because you might forget your self and end up being only with them, this is what happened to me. There is nothing wronge about it, but then you will realize how much you miss being your age.
I hope your dad left with higher spirit and better health.

I realized something recently .. that when we grow older we became more & more attached to our families .. I don't know the explaination for this .. I just see it around me with many people
