a decision
So, I’ve tender my resignation and informed a few close friends about my life changing decision.
‘Are you excited!’ they asked. No, I am not particularly excited. In fact, I have some doubts. My answer often would be ‘As I grow older, the decision is no longer about whether if it’s right but whether if it has least compromises.’
Some even think this is a way for me to run away from Al. C’mon, he is not that bad, we are not that bad!
Maybe subconsciously.
As I said, the decision is to minimize the ‘compromises’.
- Singapore is much more realistic for my parents compare to Malaysia or Australia. So, if they don’t like Australia, I will still have Singapore as 2nd option.
- Archie’s education and quality of living.
- I want a change, 12 years in Malaysia is long enough.
- Better saving.
- A positive stimulation to my marriage
- A better sense of belonging, a PR
The only downside and concern I have over this change is separating Archie and Al. Although Al will be visiting us almost every weekend in Singapore, I still feel really bad that this is not ideal concept of ‘family’.
..but decision has been made. The anticipation of this change make me feel reborn.
