I have recently begun to get over this. Other people will always have their issues and its just that- their issues. I can't help the position I'm in and you know what, I'm not going to apologize for it either.
Like I said before, my parents worked hard for this so that they could enjoy it, and eventually me. Well eventually is here sooner then any of us wanted. All I can do is follow in thier footsteps and that is exactly what I plan to do.

If your the only child no one had any business getting mad over what your Mom left you and you should feel no guilt. Your Mom cared about you thats why she took the time to get a will and alot of people never bother to do that. Parents work hard for what they have and I think most want to leave something behind for their children. My parents have a home on the water and a cottage at the beach in NC. My parents sat down with me and my sister and we talked about the subject. I wanted the house and she wanted the cottage. She wanted a few things out of the house like a few peices of furniture passed down through the family we agreed on those things. My parents then had the will done and I hope its a longf time before we ever have to read that thing but they feel better its done.
