SHE CHOSE HIM
She was overjoyed. Finally, she had received a job offer of her dreams. A job which would take her to the pinnacle of success in her career realizing all her dreams. It was an offer to die for. She had worked hard, slogged day and night and reached where she was in her life. She deserved this break which life offered her. And then she realized, the job would not just turn her dreams to reality, but would also take her away from her home. The job was not just in a new city, but in a new country!
It would take her away from him. Maybe forever. The career changes was far too strategic and once done there was no looking back. It would take her away from the light in her eyes, the smile on her lips, and the joy of her heart.
It was a difficult choice. She was on that threshold of life where she had to select which way to turn.
Just his presence in her life gave meaning to it. He gave her the peace she had been looking for. Even though their high pressure jobs did not allow them to be in touch more often, then she would have desired, their hearts were always connected. He was her strength. He had managed to break all the barriers her mind had cast over the years and kill all the demons of her past. He gave her hope and made her believe in life. He was the positive force of her life. With the thought of losing him she realized that the job was not worth it. What would she do with the higher salary or reaching a higher position in life and lead a more luxurious lifestyle when he would not be around to share it? There would not be true joy and happiness if he would not be there to hold her hand and make her laugh. She would not find the peace at the end of the day when she would fall asleep.
It was not the materialistic happiness that she desired. She realized she already had what she really needed, him.
The choice was simple. She chose him.
