The Decision

Young, energetic and a dreamer lad had his most difficult decision to make. There are things bothering him since few years back, never left him with his long life dilemma. His self esteem went soaring down with a little doubt of all his abilities to do something good. A real looser..he thinks.

Days past and was then convinced by his friend to have a little chat in a cup of coffee. They discussed everything going on locally and internationally, a question on what's life out there when you leave your country for good or get a job to fire up your future. He listened all through out the discussion and sometimes imagining the situation that he will have to put in to. Looking out the cafe window as if no walls and trees are blocking his sight, a thought of doubt and enthusiasm.

He went home nothing on his mind, emptiness that will take him weeks to think. He took his shower and sat down at his sala. He looked at all his pictures and started to realize that he was getting old since he was playing those Magic cards and enjoying getting out with his friends. Turned on the TV to watch his favorite cooking show thinking that maybe he could use the cooking techniques on his independence. As far as he remembered, his first job was not that bad. Enjoyed a lot in a couple of years and wasn't that busy.

A bright sun lit up the corner of his room illuminating the tiled floor. He got up and turned off the air conditioner that has been compressing for few hours already. Got out his room checking the refrigerator on what to eat for breakfast. Got a carton of cereal and poured in a bowl with milk. He sat down at his comfortable chair facing the window through the flowery garden with beautiful flying creatures. He then remembered what his friend had told him, "We've just borrowed our life from Him, so make use of it." A realization came out of his brown colored eyes, a decision that has been shaped, ...at last!

Got up his chair and hurried off to check his cellphone and dialed the number that might help him with his decision. A go signal was sent to his friend. It was quite a relief for his part where nothing is now bothering him. The only thing left was his financial support. He got a quite a few bucks left on his bank account to support him on his journey to the land of sand, the land of oil and gas, the UAE.
