It's becoming harder to think of my family as anything but burdens.

Take deep, slow breaths and drink some tea.

On the other hand, you've surely found some satisfaction in being able to help -- all that you've done with your family has been your sole vocation in recent years, if my distant sense of things is at all true.

Maybe you need balance, maybe you need a swing of the pendulum -- that's not for me to know -- but I do hope that you'll find a path that doesn't involve taking total responsibility for others' ongoing problems, and to build a life that's grounded in freedom as well as responsibility. (To be blunt: try not to drive yourself bald like I did.)

Of course, I'd love to see you again someday, even if I have to kidnap you to Alaska.
