La tesis de la vida
Tomado de una correspondencia con una amiga...
I like and agree with your metaphor baby-dissertation. When I was writting up my master degree's one I had the same feeling. As you say, this kind of works can feel so intimate that they can be similar to what would be to have a child. Realizing that helped me to finish because I wanted my thesis to be perfect, as much as parents would like that of their child. I think that good parents would allow some freewill and imperfections on their children an that's what I did with my master degree thesis.
Now that you have let your thesis to be autonomous, but not completely independent of you :), I like that you are embarking on new goals. Even little things like driving. Following the analogies, that is another thing that I would like to do as a parent (and I told my parents to do). Once that your children have left there is still a life to live for yourselves.

Uff...no está mal la tesis, pero vamos, yo que no me planteo ni de casualidad ser madre, como para pensar en qué haré el día que mis hijos se vayan de casa...
Es verdad que estoy teniendo un principio de año un poco movido, pero bueno, ya veremos cómo acaba la cosa. Lo de marcharme a Inglaterra con mi marido, lo veo más complicado aún que marcharme yo sola. Además, la idea sería marcharme unos meses y no voy a hacer que deje él su trabajo para venirse conmigo. Además, que a veces un poco de distancia no viene mal, que también es bonito echar de menos a la gente.
Gracias por lo de la foto, si no me lo dices ni me había dado cuenta que no se veía. Ya es la segunda vez que me pasa, y es que con el Firefox sí que se ve la foto. Creo que ya está solucionado el problema.
Un beso.
