A Good Book to Read

I read a really cool book, and finally in Hungarian. It is written by Gabriel Garcia Marquez and the original title is "Memoria de mis putas tristes". It might be translated like "The memory of my sad whores". In Hungarian is "Bánatos Kurváim Emlékezete". Sounds really good in Hungarian :)

It is about love of course :):) But a very unusual love:) When an old guy becomes 90 years old, decides that he wants to have sex with a virgin girl and calls the madam to arrange it... This is where the story begins. The guy had no wife or family and as he sad, he never could get married because of the whores he had (more then 500 :) ). He never could give up his "lifestyle" in order to have a family. If you want to find out more, just read the book :)

However it made me to think (again) about my life and the way I do things (do not think that I am going to "visit" that kind of girls :) ). Will I ever be able to give up my lifestle to have a family? You know, to not chase a good job, a good career, a good opportunities for personal and professional development? I always say that yes, when I get older. I hope that I won't be 90 years old when I will do that :), just like the guy in the book.
