From the author: Choice is difficult. The result of a choice always remains with us, as does joy, pleasure, disappointment and regret. Choice and regrets Once upon a time, back in the last century and in Soviet times, I finished 8 grades (this is like the current 9), passed the exams quite successfully and a question arose choosing a profession - where to go to study? who to become? what to do in life? I liked doing hairstyles for myself and my loved ones, and it turned out well, I made such pretzels and curls, just wow! And so, the family council met, my mother, sister and I. I said that I wanted to go to a hairdressing technical school. I saw myself in the theater, doing high hairstyles for actresses, creating .NO! my sister said decisively, delve into other people's heads, ugh.... Maybe I should go into fermentation production, I suggested - I imagined how I would walk among large vats of wine, mix them, create. NO! Mom and sister already said out loud. There is a very big risk of falling asleep!!! They chose a culinary college for me. For my sister it was a cherished dream, she loved to cook, knew how and wanted to. She created such masterpieces of culinary art, the eyes were happy and the mouth watered. But something didn’t work out with her dream and she became a commodity expert. Her mother, an engineer, approved the profession, citing the fact that times were hungry, and here there was always food, and besides, she had acquaintances in this field. The protégé was held in high esteem even then. What about me? Cooking did not attract me, did not inspire me, and did not interest me in any way, but how to go against my family, the fear of rejection was greater than the aversion to cooking. And so 10 years of my life were spent studying and working in the field of cooking technology. Now, I cook well, I can create in the kitchen, this is valuable to me and makes my loved ones happy, but there remains a regret that has lived with me for more than 30 years, which is that: - I was afraid to disobey, that I did not choose myself - my interest, my dreams; - realized other people's dreams, aspirations, fantasies; - worked out other people's fears, expectations; - the inability to face the disappointment of one's own dreams: what is it like in the hairdressing profession. More than thirty years have passed, I changed many professions, occupations, hobbies, made many other choices, I have no regrets only where I chose myself, my needs and interests.✳ How do you make a choice?✳ What difficulties do you face?✳ What Do regrets stay with you?✳ How to choose yourself?
