My heart feels so heavy
It is so hard when i have no one to even lend a shoulder to cry on
Why am I being punished like this?

Hey Sarah!
Don't be sad….you can use my shoulder if you like. No questions and definitely no advice; just a patient ear!
Take care.

Hey,
I hope you feel better soon. Stay away from such negative people, family or not. They will only bring misery with their attitude. Again, cheer up….

Hi Sarah,
I think it will do you good if you find a job. Its not to show to others that you are not lazy. A job will keep you busy and happy. And it does not have to be one of rocket scientist. Any small job, which will give you some break from the daily household worries will do you good i feel.

Smitha: I work as an administrator at a palliative care center! I also volunteer at my kids school..
My family's issue of me not working is not because I don't work per se.. but I don't satisfy the 'glorious' role ( full time job at a big hospital for eg) they felt I should play..because they are succesful in their chosen field.. they assume that I am unhappy because I don't work as a doctor. I am pretty happy where I am doing what I do..
Somehow Amma and my sisters don't get it.
Amma worked all her life and she feels worked up when she has to stay at home..Where as I enjoy my free time doing things I like to do..be it reading, writing or even watching the birds that come to my bird feeder..
My family thinks I am a loser..most of the time I tend to ignore it.. but sometimes it gets to me as it did yesterday.. It was unexpected..I was not ready for it..
Hi Sarah,
If you are doing what you like, then to hell with what other people think. Some people can never understand the joy we get from tending to the needs of our home and children. They think that if you dont bring home a big salary by month end, we are losers. I just pity what they are missing in life. When we grow old and sit back and think about our life, does our bank balance only matters?
Smitha:
Though there are moments when I see my clssmates thriving as Sr consultants, i do feel a bit jealous..
But I have never regretted my decision to be a stay at home mother.. I enjoy every bit of it. The joy in seeing my children's face light up each evening when they see me waiting for them outside the school..there are no words to describe that feeling..
Right now I need a paying job to satisfy the lovely people at DIAC ( Dept of immigration and Citizenship)..
At the end of the day.. no amount of money in my bank is going to give me the satisfaction of knowing that I was there for my children when they needed me
Yes. Thats the spirit.
Try try and try. There is nothing impossible when you really put your mind into it. Just think about what you need at this moment and don't stop till you acheive that. And then feel the rush of happiness within you. 🙂
Sarah,
I dont know you,but i follow ur blog.I am 75% you.Hope you feel better now.Cheer up!
