<Memory or Stability?>

Grace is a 27 yo english teacher, just opened up a kids talent school with her 27 yo boy friend, and started to recruit students for the english, art, and math course this summer. Candy is 26, workin for Grace as a frontdesk staff, married, with a 18 months old boy. She is 30, with a master degree, had quit her job the thrid time for a several months selftravelling, and been waiting for the next job opportunity for 2 months, working for Grace as a part time afterschool tutor, single with no relationship at the moment.

She sometimes would envy the other two girls having either their own career or family in such a young age, and feel a bit sorry for herself who's much older but has done nothing remarkable and still fooling around in real and love world. whereas one day she's been told that they envy her too as she's been travelling around and seen part of this world which they haven't (or never) had chances to see and to do. she learned a lot from what she experienced which they would never be able to get from their stable life. she got more remarkable memories than them.

She finally feels a bit happy. yeah at least she can write a book about her colorful life before breathing her last and needn't to worry about missing something she hasn't done yet. at least she's an 'easyforget' person who only selectively leaves good old time in her memories. at least she's living for herself.

So how about you? will you choose memory or stability?
