Jun
all I can say is that I’m loving the highly positive vibe the post generated. I didn’t read through all the comments, but those that I read are definitely inspiring and has reminded me to go on

thanks!

The answer right now is to work hard, make a lot of money, and utilize success to bring my family success.

Then I’ll have the time to be free and do what I want.

We share similar backgrounds and I have the same concerns and struggles on choosing between chasing passion and supporting family.

It’s been some time since you wrote this, have you found the answer?

Valerie, this is well said and spoken with someone that has experience. Some day will result in taking many regrets to the grave. People don’t necessarily regret making mistakes they regret not taking chances and missing out on things.

Hi Jun,

I’ve learned that one should never think that taking care of their parents is a responsibility. It’s all about Love.

Take some quite time. And try to remember how your parents had raised you since you were a child until you were a teenager. Try to remember everything, how they raised you, how they taught you the way to live, how they treated you when you were sick, how they sacrificed their life to raise you.

If at the end you still feel nothing. no Love whatsoever. Then by all means, please don’t ever think of taking care of your parents. Go pursue your dreams. Whatever they are. Don’t do it because you feel that you’re responsible for it.

Last but not least, there is no wrong answer. Everything that happens in the world, there is no absolute good or bad. Sometimes good things turned out to be bad things eventually, while bad things become a gain. If one can understand this, he or she will find life much easier.

[...] talked about this before, as for a time I felt like I couldn’t pursue what I loved to do. But I can tell you [...]
