As usual, I was confused about something concerning my son's school the other day and was talking (well, emailing but that's the way we generally talk these days, don't we); So anyway, I was EMAILing about it to a friend and she happened to mention something that struck a cord.
Not that I am anti-feminist or something like that, but it happens to be true for my husband and I, and a few other people I know so I thought it was worth a mention. My friend quoted something her grandma used to say - Mostly women take the right decision the first time around, but then tend to think a lot about their decision and get confused, which is just the opposite of what men do...
And how true is that. HOW TRUE is that. For me - it's like a sentence out of my biography. A nail in my coffin. Should I have explored the other option more, should I have consulted my parents, should I have gone for it, should i have done this or should i have done that.
My husband is always firm on what he decides, though he might vacillate a lot before he comes to that decision. In most cases he never regret any decision he makes, or rather doesn't ponder about it. Once decided, it is to be. For me, to put it politely (for myself), I'm the thinker.
So, today, I make a decision that I'm going to stop fretting about stuff afterwords. And as my friend's grandma says - the first decision would be my best. I'm going to trust my instincts a little more. After all, nothing bad has come out of them yet!
