Good evening, everyone. - It's been a long and exhausting few days... With working, Band practice, reading & studying my lessons - and caring for my aging mother - I have been energy spent on a heavy level... I can see why they say "the child becomes the parent" in later years. Still, I am not to the point of a total collapse yet ..lol. I love that I am able to go above and beyond for my loved ones and close friends (bandmates) - I just get frustrated now and then that I am not doing more for ME. And I feel guilty for even thinking that...if that makes any sense...Does anyone else feel like that at times?

Hello there.... I commend you on your efforts and compassion. Caring for those we love takes a toll no matter how much we know and feel that we need to do so. And, yes, the child becomes the parent. Part of the circle of life. I can so relate because it is an ingrained part of who I am to be there for others in times of need and you must take time to yourself and recharge your own energy. That is not selfish. Think of why on an airplane they tell patents to put the airmask on before putting them on their children. You cannot help anyone unless you take care of you as well.
