It is greed!

Yes, it is such a luxuary that you have options. A lot of people in the world don't (See the farmers in Lofa...the inequality of access to opportunities in this world is striking!)

So I guess the source of my stress at the moment is greed. I want them both! They are both interesting, they have their own attractions, quite different each other. The thought that I have to chose one and leave one behind make me sad. I know what I want, I want them both, but it is not possible.

Is it only me, or it is a human nature to be so greedy?

I know I will be OK. I've always been OK once I take on something. The most difficult is this moment when you have to decide to part from something you've liked, and move on....

I think it's human nature...or maybe is our nature, as I know exactly what you feel...this desire of keeping everything, making the best choice without involving any pain...I'm sure you will be great and by the way, if it can support you, I would do the same!!!
