i quite working 8 years ago to be with my two daughters as they grow. i stayed home most of the time and answer to their needs. however now that my eldest is now in college and my youngest in grade v, i can feel an empty space within me. personally i can feel that im a stagnant person now. i feel the need to grow more. im a broadcaster by profession i miss meeting other people and interacting with them. my being a homemaker is time demanding and im sure if i start pursuing my career once more,it will equally be time demanding as well. should i just forget about working again and feel that certain emptiness forever? what do you think is the best way for me to do???

having thought of the impossibility of servicing two masters at the same time cause my hesitation... however you're definitely right on saying that i have the right. thanks a lot for the reply. goodluck to you.

i think you have your own life that needs your attention too. why dont consult it with your husband, have a talk with him and explain to him what you feel and also your kids. but you have to make sure that you still have time for them too. for sure they still needed a mom and a wife who takes good care of their needs. it is only a matter of time management..goodluck to you!

thanks a lot for your response and your advice. that's what i'll do cause i realize that after all we should not stop growing, no matter what the circumstances are and no matter what your age is. good luck to you two.
