    Sat Nam,
    Through a series of enlightening events, I became a single parent before my son was even born. I felt a lot of anger and regret at having been placed in this situation, and at having placed my son in this situation. I have since come to terms with my responsibility in the way the situation played out and I am much more at peace with the way things are for us. In your original post you had said you wondered if this was some karmic action against you for previous mistakes. What I have found, and what I hope will touch your situation in some way, is that everything that took place during my pregnancy and in my son’s early life is already a part of his beautiful story, and that these events help shape the person he is becoming. I believe that my son is a beautiful, powerful person meant for nothing less than greatness, and me being a strong single mother is an important part of his story. So perhaps the karma involved here is great karma for your two wonderful boys, not a punishment for the lessons you are learning. Love knows nothing but love. You are a strong, beautiful soul and your boys will reap nothing but great things from that.

    It sounds to me like you’re too worried about what you “should” be doing by social standards and not concerned enough with what will make you truly happy. Your friends have all done what they’re “supposed” to have done, but how many of them have found fulfillment and enlightenment? At the end of the day, you’re the only one who has to be at peace with your decisions. I would recommend taking some time, perhaps writing it out. What in life makes you happiest? If you died today, what would you regret not having the opportunity to have done? I understand that sometimes following our passions requires resources like time and money that we don’t feel like we have. But I also know that, once our Higher Selves have set a concrete goal, the Universe has a way of providing the opportunities along our path that will lead us there. My advice, I suppose, isto decide what, right now- in this moment, you believe matters most to your ultimate happiness. Even if it goes against what is expected of you from the outside world. Then just keep your eyes and your heart open to the doors of opportunity that will undoubtedly begin to open for you.
