This how my younger group of cousins felt all this years and now they feel accepted when we started treating them as adults, despite some are in their late teens and we the older in age (young in spirit) are between mid 20's and approaching mid 30's (I just realized that, ouch).
Looking forward, the age difference won't matter when they are adult, it's the way they approach life and treat each other with respect.
It turned out that the thief swapped my supplementary debit card, which I wasn't aware that I misplaced or lost it until the day I found out, for a while I stopped using POS or electronic payments for months now.
I admit that I felt the pinch, but it was a big lesson to learn from, and this could happen to anyone.

It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.

She still dreaming of gaining her sight, but maybe been blind is a blessing and motivation to become a leader, for us to follow our dreams and take risks, as long it doesn't harm us nor our loved ones.
Yes, her life is not a blank canvas, and so am I.

I noticed in my country or in Arab world, the Royal wedding is not such a big deal to publish it on news. It's more of a private, and normal for a member of royal family get married to none royal family member.
I realized, most of Western countries don't have social commitments, etc, so such events keeps them occupied.
A quick note, I realized the Arabian Gulf countries' royal families inter-marry, example Bahrain and Dubai; except Omani royal family don't inter marry with other country royal families.
