There are problems you want to get over by focusing on something else. Some hurt or pain will heal over time. But if they are questions you are trying to ignore and forget, later on they will confront you again and you’re back to square one.
Were they cowards? Who is braver? Is quitting (as to outsiders) and facing your inner demons (inside) braver or more cowardly than its opposite – going on like before while dying inside?
Women with their hormones, moods, and emotions-based thinking are more prone to feeling depressed. Ha, humiliating love and a bad temper - as from another woman in a book I'm reading. Is that all there is? A lot of women have been through the same thing as mine. I am not gonna hide and escape with career. I'm going to face this head on. Because time is fast and before I know it, months and years will pass by. Time would have passed, and I haven’t grown a bit.
My former boss said if she's presented a choice between marriage and career, she wouldn't have second thoughts and choose marriage with all the traditional concepts - plain housewife, raising children, stay-at-home, etc. And she still thinks about it. Maybe with regret, with what-ifs. But she looks happy, that you'd think she's living a charmed life.
I wonder how she's feeling inside.
