人情

(n) social relationship; (n) favor; good turn

I had a good long talk with my dad today regarding this term. A few people have done a lot for me in my best interest. I had two job offers today, and although it's a few weeks late to start working... I'm not complaining.

Basically I want to take the one I worked for. The other one, I had people help me get it. If I turn the first one down, I may not owe them anything but a simple explanation but I will feel like I am shutting some doors. If I turn the latter down, I'll never be able to rebuild the relationships and never be able to return the favour.

And the answer is simple.
