Silent thought.

Most people don’t understand.
They already try to tie me down, bring me back.
“Have you thought about what you do when you come back?”
“Have you informed people you will be available for work from middle of August?”
“Did you discuss if you can go back to Stada when you return?”
They do not see there is a mindset process going on inside me that made me decide to go to Africa in the first place, but doesn’t stop there.
It sometimes makes me wonder if it is good to come back at all. Quite possibly, I would be sure about not coming back if it wasn’t for the only person in the world I truly and unconditionally love, my daughter.
Time will tell how my inner self decides. 

It is a process one goes through pretty much alone. And probably a reason why so many people in a similar situation back out. But backing out, I think, is no option. That would be lying to oneself. Hiding forever that you really do not want to be in the situation you're in, leading the life you're living.
I think that in time, those people who do not understand right now will see what it was all about. And that everything will work out perfectly fine for everyone.
And I'm hoping that seeing that will help others to make the choices that are right for them, but which they are afraid to make at the moment.
