I don't know which is worse, letting myself down or letting my parents down.
Some 3, maybe 4 years ago, my mother bought me a set of dishes, pots and pans to be brought into my new house when I started my new life as someone's wife. My mother also took a jade stone belonging to my grandmother and set it into a necklace to be worn with my wedding saree on my wedding day.
That was when she thought I was going to get married. That was when I thought I was going to get married. Now I will never use those two things my mother got for me, acquired out of nothing but love for her only daughter.
I have broken her heart. I will never be able to forgive myself for that.
