I don’t know much, but I know I love you…

Just the day before I travel, my newborn son was waking almost every other hour requiring attention from my wife and I and as I was about to travel the next day, I was trying to get as much sleep as I could.

I suddenly felt very helpless and incompetent as it all seems to be that my wife is managing the home affairs and I couldn’t help much. At that moment, I thought to myself and even told my wife that since I couldn’t help much, I might as well and be better off traveling doing my work and bring the bread back home.

My wife did not say how surprised she was listening to what I said until about a week later when I started telling her that I feel that our passion and lovingness seems to be dwindling ever since our second child was born.

What a coincidence or is it the attraction that we are doing that while having dinner at a restaurant in Central Java one night, I heard an old song from Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville, “I don’t know much but I know I love you…”

At that instant moment, I was overwhelmed by the song as I thought to myself, I may not really know as much as I would probably should in the business that I am working on or even the work that I am working laboriously on but I definitely know that I love my wife very much.

Honestly speaking, I have to thank all those personal development that I have been engaging these years not to sabotage my balance for family time with my work and more importantly, expressing my love for the loved ones before it is too late.

For those of you who have not been expressing your love to your loved ones, is this the time to dedicate this song to your loved ones?
