I thought opportunity was knocking when I got a call from somebody from the army reserves asking about my educational goal.I have a dream that I will be a dental hygienist. He offered me dental hygienist training that pays me handsomely as well as being ahead of my education.
I swear, I'm not afraid of the army. However, Im afraid of how my loved ones would react of me leaving so abruptly. He then said the beauty is that the training is local, I don't have to leave the country. It then seemed like an offer I couldn't refuse for I thought about how soon my life will get started.
Of course, my mother is who extremely attached to me wanted to know what this was all about. I had no choice, but to tell her. She is very upset about how I am considering this and she tells me that they are tricking me into selling my soul to them. The training will indeed be local, but when that is over, it is off to overseas I go. I'll be giving up everything, my family, my wonderful boyfriend, my future...
I also have that feeling that my mother doesnt want me to make any life progress because Im the only child she has left who hasn't moved away. She is still traumatized that my brother got married and left the country.
Tell me, Is the military really trying to trick me into giving them all? Or is my mom overeating to the idea that I may have my own life at age 20?
