One doctor became the greatest surgeon in the country and became the president of the National society of surgeons. For this reason, a celebration in his honour was held. But he was sad.
His friend came up to him and said:
– You achieved something that others can't even dream about – you became the greatest surgeon. Why are you so sad?
– The thing is that I achieved something that I didn't even wanted, – the surgeon said, – I never wanted to be a surgeon and now I can't escape from it. If I would suffer a failure then maybe I would have a chance to do something that I really love. And now I am chained to a thing that I don't even like.
– You must be joking? – The friend exclaimed, – the biggest honour for a surgeon is to become the president of a National society. Your wife is happy, your children are happy. Everyone has the highest respect for you!
– But I don't respect myself – that's what is wrong. I wanted to be a dancer, but my parents were against it, and I've listened to them. I was weak. I became a great surgeon, but I am very mediocre in the field that I wanted to dedicate my life to. That is why I am unhappy now.
