I think that's what our household is all about while you are growing up. Our priority is to provide all of your needs. We try to make room for you all the time. It's not only us that is wishing for your happiness. Even your grandparents (on my side of the family) is always on the lookout for your well-being.
However, this is not a reason for you to grow self-centred. We hope you give the same consideration that we are giving you. We are hoping but never forcing you to do so. Forcing you will probably do you no good.
It is actually easier for us to attain your happiness instead of ours. You have to remember, Via, that it is always easier to make other people happy than trying to make yourself happy. This holds so true. I don't know if many people will agree though.
There are so many problems in this world because people are selfish. So in order not to create further problems, make sure that you refrain from making yourself too happy. It creates trouble for everyone. I don't really mean that what makes you happy is bad. What I mean is a disregard for others feelings and well-being is bad.
This doesn't mean you have to disregard your own happiness. We didn't do all those sacrifices for you just so you could be unhappy. The key is balance.
You put yourself first ... among with other people. That is all.
