I didn’t know there were so many decorations on the streets in Hong Kong.
Apart from preparing for the interviews on Friday, I had plenty of time to explore the world around me.
At first, I planned to hit the gym. But I changed my mind in the last minute.
I just didn’t feel like going today.
While I was walking down the street, an incident happened two days ago emerged in my mind.
My mum is working in a company with a very toxic work culture. It was so toxic that she had difficulties to sleep and had a lot of health problems.
Seeing how much she’s struggling, my father and I offered her many suggestions—including resigning from her current job, since we’re not short on money.
Despite that, she refused to take any of them.
I had one more idea: encouraging her to join me for my next counseling session to help reduce her fear
She said she was too busy.
I shared the outcome with my counselor. My counselor told me that I can’t change or influence my mum’s decision. Therefore, I have to learn how to accept the fact that my mum is not willing to stop her suffering.
This is her choice. All I can do is respect her will.
