Wanting to have a pool
Patricia, Mark’s wife, had been nagging him about installing a pool in their backyard for almost a decade. When they bought their house, he had promised her to build a dream oasis. He kept putting off the project.
He was hesitant to accept the task because it was difficult and required so much work. The task was daunting, and just the thought of it would often make him feel heavy. He would make excuses for delaying it. The circumstances were such that he was at a crossroads. He couldn’t hide behind excuses anymore. He had to face reality now that the veil was lifted.
