First and foremost Denis, you must accept the fact that your family, even if they do not perform according to your expectation, are doing the best that they can with what they have...

Second, I believe that your apathy stems from the fact that you do not truly believe that there is a way out of your present condition... and, coupled with that, you may be waiting for some outside influence to direct your life...

You are the Captain of your soul and the Master of your ship... you and you alone can turn your life around...

It takes a lot of energy to stay depressed... unbelievable but true... so, if you take that same amount of energy and work toward something positive in your life... you'll find yourself much happier...

As fas as finding something that you like to do... the only thing that you can do is experiment... go to a zoo... maybe you'll find something there that inspire you... if not, go to a museum... take some art classes... go to a gym... take a long walk in the woods... climb a mountain... help a friend in need... write some poems... read about Africa...

Seek and ye shall find...

The very best of luck to you... and keep us posted...
