Empty, I come from a large family. I know oft times my sister's family takes trips to Disney and visits with family down there. I don't let it upset me because I could not afford to go and I think they are entitled to time with just the husband and kids, so I am happy for them. Now, if there was a family reunion you were not invited to that would be upsetting. As for information in the family, I often find out second or third hand.

It's makes for a very unhappy life to be focused on what you don't have. Focusing on what you do have makes for a more contented life, I think.
