your piosness is touching, and i'm sorry you have family situations that keep you where you are (and obviously quite bitter about it).
perhaps had you explained them instead of cursing those who don't have such obligations, I wouldn't have jumped down your throat the way I did. But your obvious anger and jealousy over those who fortunately have the ability to stretch their wings pretty much eliminates any sympathy I may have had. A very good friend of mine recently had to move back home for a few years to take care of his aging parents. And perhaps someday I will have to do the same. And i have no doubt that I would, at a moments notice, drop everything if family needed me. But for now, Being away has in many ways made me closer to my family (that whole phone/internet/airplane thing you were so hype about). Doing the right thing isn't always easy. Doing the right thing and being angry about it and projecting that anger onto those who have not been put into your position pretty much eliminates all the good you do karmically speaking.
