Glad that your father is out from the hospital. For sure that hive event is a success because you are doing the hands on to all the items needed.
I agree, everything you shared is true about life. We need to move forward, do our task without expecting from others because some may pull us down when they knew our edge. We need to survive and face the challenges that life thrown to us.
Not expecting anything from others is also freeing, it's like, you just do your best and that's ok if nobody is ever going to acknowledge that. The satisfaction itself is the journey and the things we learn from the process.
I agree. Satisfaction to yourself about the things you made is a great achievement already.
