I decided that dad wouldn't be very happy if he found out that everyone else knew about the Taiwan idea and he was left out of the loop. So, I told him. He reacted very negatively. Am I surprised? He told me that it was a very bad idea. And that I would make more money if I stayed here in the States. I said okay, goodnight, and left it at that. That was two nights ago. Not a word has been spoken about it since.
Now, here are my thoughts on the matter. I am perfectly capable of making my own decisions, and I do not have to ask my parents permission. I am subject to my own personal revelation, and I have the right to agency, and act in accordance to what I feel the Lord's will is for me. I respect my parents and their opinions, however I respect my own opinions and feelings more. Would I go to Taiwan against my father's wishes? Yes. Would he throw a fit? Yes. Would he then accept the idea and brag to his colleagues about me? Probably.
I am not going to make any rash or unguided decisions, especially not any this large.
I still anxiously await any new from ILP.
