Who do u choose?

Few days ago, someone asked me this question...

If u had to choose between your husband and yr child/children, who would u choose?

And without any hesitation, I said: "My child, of coz!!!!"
"Sorry hubby!!"

But today as I was showering, this question came into my mind..

This question looks simple but it leads to many thoughts. When I answered the question, I chose my child without any hesitation as I am a mother to a 16months old right now.
A young toddler that has no means to fend for herself.

And to live a life without her mother would be one of the cruelest thing to a child.


But what if my child has grown up and is an adult, with her own life and family, would I have given the same answer?


Frankly, I don't know. For I am not GOD and I am a measly human being, full of feelings that often rules over my head.


My, husband, is a man whom I have learned to love and appreciate with each and every passing day. A man that I never thought I would marry (vice versa.. "he din think he would marry me too!!"). But all I can say that God always has plans and this man would be my husband.


But what I am trying to say here is that, if your husband had betrayed u, would u forgive him or leave him? And choose your child even though he/she has become an adult?

Many women that I know of, choose to live with that kind of betrayal and silently forgive but not forget.

And what about if u, a mother,wife, has found another relationship? Would u abandon your child and live the life that you want?


Humans , by nature are very selfish creatures to some extend. But what is your limit?

For me, my family, is one of the most treasured gift I have received from GOD.
They mean so much to me.

There will be no choice and answer as they are all equally important to me.
Last but not least, I will never choose another man to destroy the trust and love that is suroundding my family...
