Family


I took a trip recently.  It was not an easy decision to do that but I did it any way.

This came out of that trip

 

family

 

I recently went to see family

 

People who birthed me

Raised me

Taught me

 

With whom I share genetics

Parents siblings

 

People who made me feel

Less than

So Wrong

 

From whom I distanced myself

To save myself

 

I recently went to see family

 

People who haven’t changed

Raised me

Taught me

 

With whom I share genetics

Parents siblings

 

People who still make me feel

Less than

So Wrong

 

From whom I distanced myself

To save myself

 

I am saved

Honest writing molly...

Yes molly, people who make you feel less, you should distance yourself from them!!

But I m happy for you now, you have your family now...who love you, value you and who knows your worth!!

 

Thanks, Aviana

We've made a good life where we are

Molly! You show genetics don't make a family. Often we create family for ourselves. Like the family we created here.

Love you Mama... Great Job! XOXO

Yes honey, like this family!

Thanks :hug: :kiss:

Your poem is wonderful, molly. I think you know my feelings regarding family, sadly we all aren't so lucky.  You dId what was necessary. You should be proud.

I just came across this and I'm glad that I did. This is a wonderful poem and very moving Molly. Families generally cause the most heartache, but it seems that you have been able to draw inspiration from your experience and turn it into something beautiful. It says a lot about your character.

Thank you Sir.

I do sometimes miss an extended family, but we've created a wonderful family of choice where we are.

Hello Dodger, thanks for your kind words.

Our experience has, I think, shown our kids what's truly important.
