Recently some of my family moved across country. Everyone else has traveled to see them. The cost, timing and hassle hasn't opened that door for my immediate family. Talk has surfaced of traveling there for holidays. I feel as though my immediate family is being pressured into attending or suffer isolation. I don't believe such is fair. We did not make the decision to leave. We have a happy life where we are. Why should I suffer the costs and strife of travel? Am I being selfish. Part of me believes it, and parts says the guilt has been forced upon me. I'm so confused and frustrated that I cannot see clearly. I have prayed for help but no clear answers have come. Only opportunities for more arguments.
