Good day Fellow Mylotters,
Due to the situation that I am encountering with my family, I am thinking if this is the right place for me. If I am still welcome to live here in our home. As this has been started when I decided to came back home since May 2011. That when I have decided to resign from my work from a far away land and decided to be with my family. Hence, I am also thinking, if I am still welcome here. Since the time I came back last May 2011, I have encountered a lot of change in their attitude. Though I know people's attitude changed but, the treatment they are showing to me now is truly different when I am just making my month vacation for the past 5 years. All I want to have is a peaceful life and enjoy the most out of it. As for me, life is just short so it is better to do the best everyday. But, this is not happening. And I really can't explain why things have changed to become worst. And the phrase keeps reverberating on my ears, if I am really welcome here. If I am still a part of this home. If this place is still right for me...

hello, airasheila!
We all have our own stories why we spend a lot of time here at Mylot. And one of my reason why I chose to stay is that I want to keep my brains working and also I want to have that peace that I feel I lack when I am in the real world.
I may not express every single thing that I feel everyday, but somehow, Mylot has become my online therapy. It has helped me to keep on going. It is not the monetary benefit that I get here. There is more than there is to it.

i find ur problem much similar to mine and can really relate to it. Even i came back home after working away frm my home . I expected peace of mind here and that family members wud understand my needs and problems bt it was totaly shocking to find that instead they didnt liked my cming back. They wanted me to keep working away..
Now i am preparing for a competetive exam so that i can start earning and end suffering of all members including myself

I'm similar to you though I'm young. I wish to have peaceful life and not cater to the others who want me to do more in life. I understand life is worth living. I would just like to enjoy it in my own way, not the way that they believe I should.
I am sorry that your family is making it more difficult on you. The only thing I can suggest to do is to keep being calm for yourself. If they're not happy with whatever you're doing, that is their problem, it is not yours.

All of us want to have a peaceful life. It is what makes all of us strive and work harder so we can rest easy and be at peace (no overdue bills, no unwanted calls from collectors, etc).
It is sad to know that your very own family makes you feel otherwise. I always believe that our home is the most peaceful place where we can seek refuge whenever we want to break away from life's harshness. I know that even though I already have a place of my own, I will always have a place in my parents' house whenever I need to run back home.
Maybe there is an issue that is yet to be discussed with your family, and nobody wants to open it up. Or maybe they are still trying to adjust to the fact that you are back again. Let's face it, sometimes we also get tired with our own family especially when we are old enough to have our own decisions and we can't help but to "rebel" whenever a decision is forced upon us.
I think you should try to talk to your family, get to the bottom of things. See what is really the problem then take it from there.

I feel sorry for you my friend that you are in this situation. There is suppose to be no place better than a home sweet home! However, you are just the reverse and have to go through all the sad moments and negative attitudes from your family members.
Have you ever find out why situations have become worst and are you having a stable offline career after you are back home with your family? You may want to consider finding a job else where and begin your life again if you think this is not a pleasant place for you. And also, I have learnt that mylot is the place you could find comfort and there are many great and warm friends here for you. Cheer up! my friend.

It is a shame the family member's attitudes have changed. Maybe they are suffering from stress. You should explain that it is best to be happy in life. Say you wish to have a more peaceful and enjoyable time in your life. I hope that you have a lovely time on your vacation. Good luck.
