curse



it is hard to be the eldest in a big family.  i can feel the weight on my shoulders, and for once, i want out. 

being firstborn is a curse this time around.  the blessings elude me.  no matter how much you remind me, i'd rather forget. for now.

can i tender my resignation effective this very second?

to be selfish. to be free.

I'm also a firstborn and I know the heavy weight of duty and responsibility. But I'm one of the luckier ones because I've always enjoyed what I am doing.

I feel you! dont we all wish it was that easy.

I used to feel that way, that whole weight of the world is on my shoulders until my siblings little by little took away the weight and carried it themselves.

In time..in time... I am here for you *hugs* we can vent together ;)

the bigger the weight, the bigger the relief when it's lifted..
patience, care, love.. and more love.. =)

i love the feeling that you can all somehow relate to me. Let's just say that what i'm handling is something i don't wish on any one, friend or foe. Survival of the fittest ang labanan. Alcohol is numbing. I embrace its warmth... And that of friends & family like you! Hugs.

there is no way out once we have this responsibility. i'm not first born but i'm having responsibilities like you. i have no regrets though. this is the life that is meant for me. i know you can handle it well at the end of the day.
