It is true that maintaining them incurs costs – good relationship
requires attention and time, often meaning transportation needed to meet up,
dining at a fine restaurant or sending flowers.
I used to drive a stylish BMW which I adored. It was devastating
when I had to sell it before moving overseas. Ever since, I have not owned a
vehicle. That has freed me from associated costs such as tax, insurance, parking, gasoline,
or even CO2 I would emit a lot.
Holidays certainly end in several days. It is the memory that
remains in my mind.
Instead of all these, I have a rewarding job. I renewed this
conviction this weekend. I feel that all the efforts I have made over the past decades
paid off. A profession is worth one’s lifetime commitment, something that gives a
very special pleasure that exceeds all wonderful things that life can offer.
