I Am a Caregiver

My great grandmother asked me how many kids I’m gonna have. I laughed and said none. She told me she’d like to have some grandkids someday and that it’s too bad she only had one daughter that won’t give her any.
This turned from funny to really sad, she has 7 daughters, 1 son, 20 something grandkids and 10+ great grandkids.

So I told her I’m her great-granddaughter. She just kind of said ‘oh’. And then she looked really sad.

That expectation is from another generation.
You are entitled to live without expectation.

I’m not entitled to live without expectation just for being born in a different time. Things are expected of me and I expect things in my future, within reason. The expectations may be different, but they do exist.

Yeah I took a break, life gets a bit distracting sometimes. @Pfuzylogic

Just sharing you are the Captain of your own ship otherwise you would have to blame others with how it turns out.
