I miss my tuition days when I could take my time to plan my lessons and pursue my own hobbies, meet up with my friends whenever I wished and go shopping, spend a long time at the library or bookshop, and view the exhibits at the musuem.
Has work taken away such freedom and individual indulgences? Even my current students suffer because of my inability to balance it with their needs.
The positive side is that I now get a stable income and am a little more confident. Most importantly, I get to relieve my dad's worry and to spend more time in prayer.
Should I trade such invaluable gifts for my own selfish desires and myopic perception? Perhaps self-denial and dying to self is the answer needed.
