Two worlds: a reflection

This draft has been written in my PDA during my numerous trips to La Union in the early parts of 2007. I've forgotten about this, and found it again just now. So here...

Our first Christmas and New Year holiday as married couple opened a kaleidoscope of realities that left me reeling in a mix of wonder.

To summarize, year 2006 ended with Joan and I realizing that our families are different in so many ways, both in good and not-so-good things.

A world of difference, I must say.

We both perceive something different, at most alien, in each of our families. The only difference is that we are one family now, and we get to subtly nudge and poke each others families here and there – without trying too hard and without crossing the line.

Cheers!
