awww, I’ m crying in the library right now because of this post. I really loved it and you deserve everything. My parents care for you because they see the good in you and see how happy you make me OH, and not to mention the fact that my mom loves it when you poke fun at me….

Caring about someone unconditionally is a very foreign idea to me. What if they hurt you? How could you still care? I think I’m the only one who doesn’t get this. Many people I’ve asked say that they’d still love their child if they grew up to be a mass murderer.

I knew that the relatively sharp point of the chopsticks make them more of a Japanese style, but I never realized that the chopstick rest was as well until you mentioned it. I thought of all the Chinese chopstick rests I’ve used, and they’re more function over form; none of them have been in the shape of an animal, which is a much more Japanese thing to do.

Your knowledge of the Asian cultures never ceases to impress me.

How true…. surrogate parents have always been a plus in my experience. I miss one of my ex’s moms in particular. I miss the ex often, but with pangs of sadness at his foolishness. I miss his mum unconditionally.

Your friends didn’t notice the difference in the chopsticks and cat, which are more Japanese really, but it’s a lovely thought that counts. And lai-see too!
