Day 4 A Date with Mom

Today I decided to spoil my mom and took her on a shopping spree and a  special lunch. We even indulged in some sweet delights which is usually forbidden for mom! I must admit, not without a pang of guilt, that it has been quite a while since I last spent some quality time with her and even longer since I did something to make her feel special. Because, let's face it, for many of us, one of the most vexing challenges is striking a healthy balance between our busy professional and academic schedules and our personal lives. When our free time is not properly managed, it's typically the parents who get pushed down on our lists of priorities! This is because only a few of us are inclined to spare a thought about parents when we are engrossed with our busy lives. But sometimes, it's great to just slow down, pull back and pause instead of just charging down the alley of life. This would give us more time for the loved ones thus enriching our lives evermore..
