it’s interesting how I cam across two columns today whereby the authors wrote about making changes in one’s life and whether they should take the leap. One was in the Sunday Times, and the other can be found here - http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/17/fashion/ready-to-take-a-faithful-leap-modern-love.html.
It’s uncanny cause I’m gearing towards making my own leap. It’s gonna be a long drawn out process, but I think I should start sooner rather than later. So many considerations and factors when deciding what to do . I already know when I want to do it, but it’s the how and where that I’m agonising over now. The nytimes articles struck a greater chord with me coz it’s about parental opinions and how the columnist’s mother wanted her to live the life that she (the mother) wanted for her (the columnist) which led to a very sad ending. While my parents are not that draconian, I know there are certain expectations and wishes. But I can’t read minds! I can’t please everyone, but I don’t want to be responsible for or be the cause of any unhappiness or unpleasantness. Sigh…
