Family: Like branches on a tree, we all grow in different directions, yet our roots remain as one.
Even if we aren’t on the same page or in the same city, family is family – we are rooted - even if the relationship has been damaged or broken, or is going strong.
Not all family members see eye to eye, and to me that is better than being phony and pretending. At least it’s honest.
Regardless of any relationship, you have to be you – your true you – trying to be anything else is exhausting and unfair to yourself.
The word family has many definitions when looking it up on a search engine. There are as many definitions as there are people.
Questions to Ponder:
What is your definition of family?
What does family mean to you?
How does family define you?
