"Ma, is that you?" I sometimes say to myself.

It seemed just like a thought in my head, a memory from my childhood. But, NO. It was actually me doing or saying things which reminded me so much of my mother. Of how she acted and said things. Of what used to piss me off when I was much younger.

15 or so years later and here I am, using the same yardstick, saying the same things, using the same logic for judgement.

I have turned into my mother.

And guess what I am not alone. Jenna also realized how she is turning into her mother. She has been doing things that are "mom like".

So, I guess, environment does shape our personalities to some extent.

Hey, I have no complaints. Just that now, after all those years as a rebelling teenager, I finally understood what my mom's sermons meant. 15 years later.
