A DECISION

    I am the only child and daughter, so it follows that I am the apple of my parent's eye. I was a good child, not that I was always obedient, a great student, and became a doctor. In short, I did what was expected of me. I finished University, married the man of my life, and had a beautiful son. I had a great life full of love and happiness!

   Then, my dear father died and I realized that life is short and now is the right time for me, to fulfill another of my desire, the desire to become a writer.

   I gathered my family and told them about my career change. As expected, my son and husband were happy with that, and even encouraged me, like always. Well, the different story was with my mom.

   „ You must be joking! No way! At your age, tztztz... What about your career? You are a physician for God's sake..." She was stunned by my decision, and I was stunned by her reaction.

     I am over 50, and she is over 80 years old (may God protect her). I am a Pisces in my horoscope, and she is a Virgo. So you can see that we are so different, meaning we are incompatible. Luckily, we are not living together, just close enough, so our relationship is great after all. However, we love each other, and that is the most important thing! In the end, she was happy to understand that I would have much time for her! Imagine that!

    I always thought that life is beautiful when one decides to enjoy it. It is a matter of one decision. Now I am sure of it!

    Today my journey begins, and I am looking forward to new adventures!
