I made a decision when I was driving to the vacation beach cottage(小屋).To myself,I had to say that I had been a selfish husband and father.I wanted to change.I should give as much love as I can to my family.
And it did.Right from the moment I kissed Mary at the door and said, "That new yellow sweater looks great on you."
"Oh,Tom,you noticed," she said,surprised and pleased.
Two weeks of not calling the company where I work;a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums;a walk with Mary on the beach while the children flew their kites.Relaxed and happy,that's how the whole vacation passed.I made a new decision to keep on remembering to choose love.
But on the last night at our cottage,Mary looked at me with the saddest expression.
"What's the matter?" I asked her.
"Tom," she said in a voice filled with sadness, "do you know something I don't?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well…that checkup(體檢) I had several weeks ago…,our doctor…did he tell you something about me?Tom,you've been so good to me…am I dying?"
After hearing this,I started laughing. "No,honey," I said,holding her in my arms. "You're not dying. I'm just starting to live."
