Family and family

This post is for me.

Family is that which reminds you of your roots. Family reminds you of how you struggled, fought and won; not in a sad way, in a happy way. Family tells you that you are not dark, but light. Family reminds you that when the chips are down - you are not really alone. Now, for many, people try to interfere with the concept of family. Family is not just blood, family is not just married into. Family essentially are a set of people who are simply happy you exist. To whom you represent a certain irreplacable energy. From whom you have acceptance, trust, implicit support and understanding. Family is not just about people who do things for one-another; family is where you are understood, respected and accepted - even when, and especially when, you are not at your best.

Calling out to all of you who are family - thank you. And I love you.
