During the three days while I was in the berg, I lost count of how many times I said I wish I could just live there, especially when I was washing the dishes. From looking at the pictures you will know why, that is what I was looking at when I was washing the dishes, I enjoyed washing the dishes. I live in a small town in Taiwan and I don’t get to see anything like this through any window, don’t even mention when I was in Taipei (the capital city).
But no matter how much I wish to stay, I also know that I won’t be able to last more than three months. Not because I will miss any of the city life, but I will start to consider about what kind of education my kids will get, and if they’ll be able to keep up with the tempo of the world.
As simple as that one thought is, even though it’s not about me, I would just give up all my wishes to stay there. I guess that’s just part of motherhood, you usually want the best for your children, the meaning of the best is usually about what you yourself are afraid to lose or something you were missing during your childhood. When the choice gets to this point parents would rather give up the present to make up for their past.
Then again, life is all about choices. Every decision you make has a different result, and you can never be sure if it’s the best choice or not.
Are you ever ready for what’s next?
