Wanting a pool
Patricia, Mark’s spouse, had nudge him for nearly a half-decade about installing a swimming pool in their garden. He had promised to build her a dream oasis when they first bought the house. But he kept putting it off.
The task was so difficult and involved so much effort that he was reluctant to take it on. It was a daunting task, and the mere thought of it often put a weight on his shoulders. He would find excuses to delay it. Now, the circumstances had come together in a way that left him at a fork in the road. He could no longer hide behind excuses. The veil had been lifted and the time was now for him to face the inevitable.
