No, it's not.

[ It's easier just to do what one's always done after all, especially if it works. Even if it isn't good for you. ]

You said your father left to cover a war. Is he why you became a journalist?

[scooptimistic]

Partly. Mostly. I did end up following in his footsteps... I wonder what he'd think.

[ About his kid following him in that same line of work. About her reasons. ]

[researcherstory]

[ Hmm. So she doesn't know, whether by distance or... ]

You don't think he'd be proud of you?

[scooptimistic]

He died when I was a little kid. So no. No idea.

[researcherstory]

[ Yes, indeed. The other "or". ]

Hm. It's certainly hard to say then, even imagining.

[ But they can hope he would. ]

I for one think it nice you did. It feels... as if you're carrying his spirit with you, in a way.
