In the labyrinth of emotions, love and money are often entangled. When we face the dual challenges of family affection and finance, the balance of the heart is always difficult to balance. In this article, I will ** a sensitive and complex topic: why I chose not to support my parents with money while loving them deeply.
Love is the source of emotion, and it is also the purest emotion in the world. We are born and grown by love, and love is the inseparable bond between us and our parents. However, when love and money are intertwined, this purity seems to be overshadowed by an invisible burden. I love my parents, no words, no reason. But love should not become a bond, nor should it become a heavy shackle between each other.
The Choice Between Reason and Emotion: The Use of Money
The love is deep, and the responsibility is keen. My love and affection for my parents has never diminished, but now, I don't want to express this emotion in the form of money. Why? It's the worry about the use of money. My parents, their way of life is different from mine, and their attitude towards money worries me. They buy countless unnecessary things and spend their money on relatives with whom I disagree. I don't want my hard-earned money to become an endless source of spending. This is not the attitude towards money that I expected, and it is not the way I want to see them live.
The Boundary Between Independence and Dependence: Guiding Autonomous Living
The dependence of my parents is a thorn in my heart. I love them, but this love should not be the whole of their lives. I don't want to see them always dependent on me, without their own income**, without their own interests and hobbies. I hope that they can learn to be independent and find their own value and happiness in life. I don't want their lives to be just a blank slate, I want to see them have a happy and meaningful old age.
The Balance between Self-Actualization and Family Responsibilities
As a child, I have a responsibility to think about my future. I have dreams, I have goals, and I need to plan for my career and family. This means I need to save and invest to pave the way for the future. I don't want my parents to be a burden to me, and likewise, I don't want to be a burden to them. It's a difficult choice, but it's a reality that must be faced. I need to think about my own future, and I also want my parents to understand my choice.
In the interweaving of love and money, we are all looking for a balance. In the process, we learn to understand, we learn to respect, and we learn another expression of love. I feel sorry for my parents, I love them, but I want both to find true joy and meaning in our lives. Let us grow in love and move forward in understanding, so that this love is not just the giving of money, but the mutual understanding and support in the depths of our hearts.
