Ask myself everyday, what I want. The death of my father this year taught me a great deal about how quiet he was about the people he supported and took care of, while never denying his own family anything.
Asking myself and answering myself every day, and choosing to replace the word ‘need’ with ‘want’ helps clear my mind and gives me the courage to make tough decisions, and hope for the best. Huda M.
