When family members are scattered across the country, it’s easy to forget about them. You have to keep in touch, and share your life with your family. They want to know, and you’ll feel better if you stay connected.
Two decades ago, Sally moved out of her family home to go to college. When her mother looks back on that time, she says wistfully, “It was scary. I wanted her to follow her dreams, but I didn’t want to miss her. I felt like she wanted to leave me, that she wanted to disappear.”
Sally saw her mother’s reaction as a sign of her mother’s insecurity rather than love, and they lived apart: “She would ask me why I was moving away from her, and I didn’t think about it. I felt like that was her problem.”
Sally’s work life kept her geographically distant from her family. Over time, Sally’s mother became less interested in Sally’s decisions, but Sally. She worried about her mother’s lack of interest in her, and their relationship remained as distant as their locations.
Then Sally realizes that behind her mother’s anxiety and her final reaction lies the same thing: love.
Geography is no longer a barrier. Sally and her mother are in regular contact, and Sally rejoices at the opportunity to visit her hometown. Sally warns those who travel and those who stay home to remember that being apart does not necessarily mean being apart.
Studies examining the importance of family to older people, compared with those who are not yet middle-aged, show that family relationships are a vital factor in life satisfaction for both age groups.
