This is a question that all of us need to ask ourself. Do I have the life I desire? Am I living the way I would want to. I have observed this that most of the time we live for others, specially women. They are taking care of their children, husband, parents and in all the bargain they forget to take care of themselves and live the way they desire. At every step there are tests of life where one will have choices, which one will be for self and one will be taking care of something other then self.
When it comes to me personally, I cannot say 100% I am living my life the way I desire, there are somethings where I still need to think of others and mould my life accordingly. One e.g. of it is me living in a different country Muscat. This is not my choice, I would want to live in India all the time, but then my hubby's job is there and I want to be with him. I do not want to live separately without him, so that's a choice I made and this also means that I have to sacrifice my own desire for it. But then we made a pact that we will live for a certain number of years and then return back. So it can take care of both our desires.
When we live together with family, these moments of taking decisions will always keep coming up and one will have to choose between one own's desire and what's best for the family. The time I made that decision, I knew that in that moment that was best for my family and it was needed. But my hubby is understanding, he knows my desires and tries to take care of it by bringing in some balance where I get to spend time in both the places almost equally.
I believe that there is never a 100% life for anyone, if we try to keep taking care of only our own desires then probably we may not be walking with our loved ones together. Hence a little give and take is important to maintain the balance in life.
