Two offers. One pays nearly double and is in a city where I know no one. The other is here, with people who have taught me everything, for money that will keep me where I am for another three years. I keep asking God which one and getting nothing, and I am starting to think the silence is the point and I do not like it.
I took the one here. Marcus was right that I already knew. What I actually wanted was for someone to tell me the smaller salary was not a failure of nerve, and nobody could tell me that because it had to be mine to decide. Started Monday. Mr Mensah taught my brother and now I am two streets from him, which is either very small or exactly the size it should be.
