A practice pointed out to me this week, asI had the same sentiment about family as you, is called tonglen. I hesitate to express much more about this practice because I am so new to it, but please research it. It has turned into a most profound practice, and fits right in with the theme of the essay this week. Perhaps there are others reading this thread who can give a succinct explanation of this, and the practice is amazing.
