Sharing the experience of life is broken because of the word gratitude.🥲

We believe that many of them are also people who have carried their families... whose role in carrying most families is to raise money to take care of the whole family, whose duty we have always been...

In the past, we worked freelancers for more than 80,000 ฿a month. We worked for the evening, eating noodles to save money to take care of the people in the house... That was our brothers and mothers. We did that for 5-6 years. Until we graduated, we had to return to our father's job because the word "son" only accepted 10,000 baht. Some months got less than that. But we also had money from freelancers. We still had some money to take care of our family. But the turning point was in our 25 years. Our finances shrank... and our father insisted on not giving our family business. Part of it was due to our father. There is another family too (in this part, we understand because it is our father's right), but our father seems not to let us go to work elsewhere... so we tolerate many reasons.

1. Because Father may change his mind for our brothers and sisters. Our brothers will not suffer.

2. Because of pity for my father, since we are the only people in the house who have finished marketing, we can help him find the most customers and show that we are grateful to my father even if no one has ever seen and thought.

3. Because if we go to work elsewhere, my father may tease us like when we studied, but we can choose to be with our mother (at that time, my father cut us out of our childhood every year, we have to find ourselves, but luckily, my father still sent us tuition and approved to stay in my condo)

But as the times change, we experience a heavier impact on our work + finances, so that we can't feed our family as before... and when we don't have enough people in the house to cause our brothers to curse us behind our backs, we still think that we are jealous of our brothers and sisters together... and again, it's not enough. When we experience very stressful financial things, it turns out that we don't even have any siblings that we used to comfort.

So we want to remind everyone who is doing it for the family... to do it, but don't forget yourself. Make as much as you can better make you throw away like us.

Right now, we are like a very poor alley. The family came back to destroy us indirectly. If the money that we took care of everyone, we turned it into a business and continued... it would be better. Let the brothers hate, let the parents curse and then support them when we stand.. better than this. Finally, it is very worthless.

Read moreเรื่องราวของการติดกับดักความกตัญญูถือเป็นบทเรียนสำคัญสำหรับหลายคนที่แบกรับภาระครอบครัวอย่างหนักหน่วงตั้งแต่อายุยังน้อย การเป็นเสาหลักในบ้านไม่ใช่เรื่องง่าย โดยเฉพาะเมื่อคุณต้องทำงานหนักเกินกำลังเพื่อดูแลพ่อแม่และพี่น้อง โดยไม่คำนึงถึงสุขภาพกายและใจของตัวเอง ผลกระทบจากความกตัญญูที่มากเกินไปนี้เห็นได้ชัดเจนเมื่อคนในครอบครัวเริ่มไม่เห็นคุณค่า และบางครั้งกลับมาทำร้ายทางอ้อม ทำให้ผู้ที่รับผิดชอบรู้สึกเหมือน "เราคือน้องและลูกที่ไม่มีค่า" ซึ่งเป็นสิ่งที่หลายคนอาจไม่คาดคิดว่าจะเกิดขึ้น ดังนั้น การดูแลครอบครัวจึงต้องควบคู่กับการดูแลตัวเองอย่างสมดุล การตั้งขอบเขตทางอารมณ์และการเงินเป็นสิ่งจำเป็น เพื่อป้องกันไม่ให้ตัวเองตกอยู่ในสถานการณ์ "จนตรอก" ที่ไม่สามารถย้อนกลับได้ นอกจากนั้น การพูดคุยเปิดใจอย่างตรงไปตรงมากับสมาชิกในครอบครัว และการพิจารณาตัวเลือกทางอาชีพที่เหมาะสม เช่น การต่อยอดทำธุรกิจหรือหารายได้เสริมจากความชำนาญของตัวเอง จะช่วยเพิ่มความมั่นคงทางการเงินและลดความเครียดในระยะยาว คำเตือนสำคัญคือ "อย่าลืมตัวเอง" และทำเท่าที่ทำได้โดยไม่ทุ่มเทจนหมดกำลัง เพราะชีวิตยังต้องเดินต่อไป และถ้าไม่มีสุขภาพจิตและร่างกายที่ดี การดูแลคนอื่นก็ยากที่จะยั่งยืน การมีความกตัญญูและรับผิดชอบเป็นสิ่งดี แต่ถ้าขาดการวางแผนและการดูแลตัวเองที่เหมาะสม อาจกลายเป็นกับดักที่ทำลายชีวิตในระยะยาวได้ ดังนั้นให้ใช้บทเรียนนี้เป็นแรงบันดาลใจในการดูแลตนเองควบคู่กับการดูแลครอบครัวอย่างสมดุลและมีสติ
