lesson every single day to help you with your most important job being a parent.
I'm Ryan Holiday and I draw these lessons from ancient philosophy, modern psychology,
practical wisdom, and insights from parents just like you all over the world. Thank you for
listening and we hope this helps. You're not the only one. It breaks your heart,
the divorce, the separation, the deployment overseas, the first year of college, the
assignment or the silent treatment. The time you have to spend on the road for work when they
had to go ahead with your spouse and get settled into the new house where you stayed back
to tie up loose ends before the move. Nobody likes being away from their kids, not for any extended
period of time anyway. It feels like a piece of you is missing. It's an injustice, it's a hardship.
But you know what it also is, it is a part of life. You are not alone in being separated
from your children. The tutor tries to tell Medea in Euripides, famous play.
Medea's husband, Jason, is just left her for another woman, despite Medea having had his
children betrayed her father for him and moved to a new city after their marriage. Part of being
a human being, the friend consulsor, is barren adversity with a patient heart. Of course,
anyone who is seen or read the play knows that tragically, terribly, Medea is not able to reckon
with this. She lashes out. She overreacts. She does something that cannot be undone.
That is not the message of today's episode. The message is that you are not alone.
The pain you feel is a timeless pain, a common pain. It's the pain that immigrant families
have felt and feel. It's the pain that empty nesters feel. It's the pain that families
going through a split feel. It's the pain that deployed service members and their families feel.
You're going to have to find a way to bear this or it will break you. You're going to have to find
a way to be patient. You're going to have to find a way to focus on solutions, not your anger or your
fear. You have to find a way to connect with others, people who've been through this too,
who are going through it. Because again, you are not alone.
