Chasing rainbows. But the rainbow is an illusion, when I get close, it disappears or it moves and the chase is on again.Today, some questions I ponder:
- Is relying on family a waste of energy?
- Is asking for compassion for an elderly family member wasted on the young?
- Is appealing to the generosity of family futile?
- Why am I disappointed in some family members who are behaving disrespectfully toward a matriarch of the family, in her 90th year, and is in the most vulnerable period of her life?
At the end of the day, I will let it go... in the darkness I light a candle.
After this post, certain family members came through and showed their compassion.
