In my mother's case, I knew what is missing part in my mother side, and what is missing in my part. So, I could assess and try to find the piece which would best fit both of the missing parts. In this way, I did not have to be emotional or I did not make my mother emotional.
As for the job offer, I think the jigsaw piece given from the company and president looked good. It looked fitting any part I was missing. But, because I knew what I have built and what is actually missing, I finally found that the given piece, no matter how good it looks, is not the one fitting my missing part. If I pushed to try to fit it in, my entire picture will be ruined and what I have built for past 10 years would have collapsed.
Again, I learned that deciding on one consistent proposition and sticking on it gives me great deal of power. I believe I should not shift or change what I am trying to do no matter how the others looks better. If you keep changing my spouse because new one looks attractive, you could not have built any relationship. Instead, if you continue to rub, massage, keep building relationship, believing she (he) will be a diamond for me one day, he or she will. (LOL)

Hi Shaw .. how true .. to believe in the decision you made after due consideration - and to keep all you'd worked for in the past 10 years, all the growing and learning you have done, also marrying your wife in the States - to take the job in Tokyo would have stymied your freedom, your mother would have been happy - but she too realised that your future is where you want to be - the States.
Good for you .. a very difficult process - Hilary Melton-Butcher

Hello Hilary,
People talk about challenges. But many people would not take them when they come, I noticed. Still, there are challenges which you cannot avoid. I just wanted to take it on as the best I could. I am not sure if I did it best, but I am happy I could handle it one way or the other.
Thank you for your comment.
