The same observation was taking place in my own life. I too had come to my senses, from skepticism due to perhaps of my long slumber under the pretense that I have known the truth or of my denial that it did exist like I was under hypnosis. With all the pieces of evidence embedded in the situation all points to the same direction, one could not be mistaken, the change was real and was happening; then we had the mutual feelings of being second fiddle right there.
The following situations were our basis for doubts which led us to seek and know more about the facts, such as; we had an experiences of not complete and we're already left out of some important but family gatherings, the priorities and preferences were given to other people which at first hardly acceptable and very disappointing, the bold affirmation of likes and dislikes which were of direct contrast to what we’ve used to, and finally the actual occurrence of events that we've been afraid of was to witness the affair.
We could not help but accept the reality that our children are grown up kids and are matured enough. It’s about time that they will choose their own destinies in life. With difficulty or great pains, we can give them enough space to live and be independent especially if they are already married. They have their own world and priorities.
Let’s accept that we are already number 2 in their lives. It’s a consolation on our part that in our hearts they are still our priorities.
