Does work take preference over family? Should we actually give preference to the work commitments more than our family?

That is the hardest thing I can do so. I will take more time to learn that :(

Tough decision... deep_musings October 17 2006, 02:09:34 UTC

That must have been a tough decision to make. Well, if you look at it practically I guess you have to choose the option that you will regret the least.

Agree with you Deeps.

My parents are doing good, that is the udpate I get on phone and I force myself to trust them :)

Its good when you are in Tucson :) deep_musings October 17 2006, 02:20:46 UTC

On a different note, it is nice when you are in Tucson because that's when you blog :-).
