Self/Life Lessons/Happiness

My Daughter Invited Me to Her Summer Wedding As A Guest

Happiness is not what you give to others but what you give to yourself.

Reciprocal can work but is not always fair to all the people involved. What you do for others must be free will without expectations. Learn to stop putting yourself last and use your influence to inspire others.

Hi, Lidi here.

My daughter, Leddy, invited me to her wedding as a guest. I wasn’t part of the wedding planning because I was out of the league of her future in-laws and her dad and stepmother. I was a single mother who worked multiple jobs to pay my daughter Ivy’s college tuition.

Years back, I sacrificed everything and believed my daughter would be on my side after she landed a lucrative job. The thought of abandonment makes me sick right now.

I have solely raised my daughter since her dad cheated and divorced us. She was seven, and we got nothing from her dad.

“When you start to think of revenge, you start to think of hate. I don’t believe in hating people. It’s a retrogressive thing.” — Fela.

After twenty years, on her wedding day, Leddy chose her father and the woman he cheated with as the father and mother of the bride. I was devastated, angry, and felt small. She got married and ignored me for many years. Then one morning, she showed up at my front door. She needed help from “a stupid mother.” ‘Mike cheated on me and drove us out of our home,’ she cried.

My daughter looked as I used to look when I worked multiple jobs to put food on the table and pay her college tuition. I saw a pregnant woman with a small daughter behind her. I had not seen my daughter for almost six years, and she begged me for help for the last time.

I told her to go back to her dad and stepmother. After she stomped out, I felt guilty for not giving her a place to stay with my granddaughter I saw for the first time.

Please advise me on what to do next. Thank you.

Happiness is not what you give to others but what you give to yourself. Is it okay to expect payback for helping your loved ones? Thank you for joining the conversation.
