About my mother and a little more about me.

I guess it is time for me to tell more about myself. I was born in 1985 in Lithuania, which at the time was a part of USSR. My father was a ship captain and my mother an engineer. I grew up dreaming about going to England and I started studying English when I was five. My parents marriage didn’t last very long and they separated when I was 3. In 1989 Berlin wall fell, and whole Lithuania stunk of revolution. 1991 it happened, Lithuania was now an independent country and I was free to accomplish my dream – except for my age. I had to wait until I was 18 to leave. My mother managed to create a bitter atmosphere towards my father, and even though I missed father figure I managed to be angry with him for leaving US! That was going on until I moved out at 16.
I didn’t know the whole thing, but when my mother divorced my father only after I left Lithuania I realized what it was all about. She was afraid I would choose him, and yes I would have done, because she was cold, bitter and never happy, always reminding me of my mistakes.
Now I am grown up, married and happy. My own marriage is built on trust and love, not on a child. My mother ran after me to the UK to ruin my life and managed to destroy my wedding day, but no further damage was done.
I am angry with her, and I feel awful that the person I should be able to trust at any time is just not supporting me. Instead I have a wonderful husband, who will never let me down and a dog who is a real pest.
Before I came to England I lived in France, and had many exiting adventures. Me and my husband (and our dog) are moving to France in few weeks time, where we hope to have better quality of life and I hope to get my adventures back, as at the moment I am stuck in our little life in Chatham. I was completely honest while writing this, and I lost the whole text and this time it didn’t work out as nice as it was the first time, but this will have to do. As I can not describe my life any better than – I just had a dream, I made it come true, and now I have new dreams. Everything else isn’t important.
