I miss my nephew so much!

[Shawn Philips]

I spend this summer vacations with my sister family. Her husband more focused on his job all day watching the smartphone and is an absent father towards the children.

The 4yo kid always want to be with me because his father dont give him attention. 

I play with him, we have fun, tell, jokes, sing songs, and make excursions. He's had a really good time this vacations, and I went back to my childhood playing with him.

 

Now the vacations are over I miss the kid so much because we developed a close relationship. I'm kinda depressed, and feel a knot in my throat. I don't know how to overcome this.

Maybe this is a clue that you should be working with kids more, or have some of your own, since you are so good with kids.

@Shawn Philips This is an important discovery for you. Maybe you're a family guy and now you know that. Be glad for this eye opening experience. 

I can empathise with you because yesterday I poignantly discovered that having kids would make me miserable. So it's very important to discover that about oneself. It's a huge decision.

For me these are the three basic questions for living the good human life.

What is my job?

Do I want a partner? Do I want kids?

Rather than Missing and Craving the Experience again, Cherish it and feel Blessed that it happened, change the context, right now Your Craving it, whether it is the relationship with the Nephew, or something or someone else, its the "Lack" of it not being here that is bothering You, so then You begin to Crave it, like a drug addict wanting their fix, change the context, be Thankful and Grateful that the Relationship blossomed as it did, now You have a strong connection with the Boy, that is healthy, and it will continue on again...
