RE: My Love For Mom

in africansonsteemlast month (edited)

Kind of sad isn't it if it comes to that saying ☹️ it says enough of the "love" of a child. Busy means mom no longer counts unless she's needed again.

This mom is absent.

I was unable to continue the discussion anymore, as if I had done the best for my mother, even though I had not, in fact I still disappointed her a lot.

Maybe as I write this, my mother is thinking about me and shedding tears, how much she misses me.

Are you sure you disappoint her or is she disappointed by herself?

Only once a child disappointed me but that was because of what it said not as a person. Perhaps it's easier if there are no expectations and no need to depend on someone?

I believe all I want is that my children and others can be who they are. Why? Because that is what I want and need most of all. It takes courage to be and frequently it's a lonely journey. Still, to me it is better than being someone I am not.

For sure she sheds tears, we all do and you will be missed if you spent longer together.
More important is what you want for you and what you need and miss.

Most of us grow, change and once we found us whatever we face is easier to handle. Makefriends even if they can't be present 24/7 it helps.

I feel like I haven't been able to make her happy, to fulfill her wishes, I don't know if I'm being too selfish, but the circumstances force me to.

When I visit my parents' house every week, the expression of happiness is clearly visible on their faces, especially when they see their grandchildren.

In such conditions, the hardest thing is the moment when I leave them to return to normal daily activities in the city that is 1 hour away from them.

This is how I see it. We all have a life to live and our own road to take with or without dreams and wishes.

What is the first fish we one as a parent? A healthy child. Healthy as in body and mind.

Next, we want our child to be happy. Both wishes are selfish because an unhealthy unhappy child is a heavy task for a parent it limits us.

Are you selfish if you do what you feel is best for you? We all should be if not there's a heavier load on our shoulders.

A one hour travel is not too far. With children we have different responsibilities and needs. I am afraid it is impossible to please everyone.

As a parent I learned that if I am unhappy it influences my children as well. For sure many called me selfish but as many also say that I invest way more time in my children than the average parent will ever do.

The only thing that counts is how you feel about you. If it comes to it you are your only best friend. The one you are born with and will pass away with so it's wise to accept and be satisfied with the person you are.

🍀♥️

I'm very grateful for your great advice, but it's impossible to please everyone, due to the different inclinations of each of us.

The good news is, tomorrow after my son returns from school, we will be leaving for my parents' house, and staying there for two nights.

However, I hope that there will be no looks of sadness when we temporarily part ways on Monday morning.
