Choices

I've often been accused of being career oriented, being power hungry, wanting to establish the superiority of women. Words like these have always hurt me deeply.

Strangely, my life's events have congregated towards all of the above accusations. And yet, there's one thing that no one realizes. All of these are the byproducts of my choices. And I never chose money or power or public standing. What I always chose was my people.

'My people' are simply those people I love. Simple as that. And that started with my parents. I love them deeply. And so, every single choice I made in different phases of life, revolved around what would make them happy.

And that is how it'll always be. My people will always be what I choose. When they are happy is when I am happy.

All the rest is consequential.
