Insatiable longing for child-free times

"If you want, you can also have a few hours for yourself, we will then take care of the children in time!" When my mother-in-law pronounced this sentence aloud during supper, she probably only began to guess which bonds she would bind me with blew up. Children free. Time only for my husband and me alone. The doors of my inner prison were opened, the smell of freedom was already in the air. And yet there was something else. A feeling that gave me a big lump in my throat the next undisturbed moment and brought tears to my eyes. It was the knowledge of the finiteness of these child-free moments.

Sayings to longing

Love and longing

The question should be asked of all desires: what will happen to me if it is fulfilled, what the desire seeks, and what if it is not fulfilled?
Epicurus of Samos (around 300 BC)

Up close, from a distance, a little heart thinks of you. Love you and love you, yours also thinks of me?

Am I a dreamer come tell me I only want to know from you. Because only you know the truth because only you give me these dreams.

Longing is an amplifier of desire.

Marcel Proust (1871-1922)

Amazement is a longing for knowledge.
Aquinas (1225-1274)

The empty wish to be wasted between the desire and the acquisition of the desired is a longing.
Immanuel Kant (1724-1804)

May 31 yearning for sibling? Is a subsequent desire to have children legitimate at all??

"I’m glad you gave birth to a healthy child!"
"You are ungrateful because you are sad because you have no other child. What are they supposed to say who have no child at all! "

Do you know these sentences? Do you know this feeling that nobody understands you. Those who know about someone can still understand that someone wants a first child. And also the sadness that goes with it when the desire to have children is not so easily fulfilled. But then it stops. Anyone who has a child has to be thankful. Anyone who has one child (or several) and wants another one will hardly be understood. Often not even from your own partner … especially not from your friends and acquaintances and family.
