FAMILY.

It’s all about family…

My family tried.

They did their best…

Don’t get me wrong. But…

I associated fear… trauma… abuse… addiction… anxiety… fear… depression with that word.

And it scared me. Deeply…


For so long.

How do I let that pain heal?

With time and with hugs.

Beautiful, tender, loving hugs…

With the people, I’ve grown to call family…


My people.

My tribe. My loves.

I never have to worry about hearing “I love you” back anymore.

They did that.

They loved me in a way that was so deep and unconditional, that it made me believe in home and family again.

The small things. The big things. And everything in between. The family I want to build lives within me… Now…

And FOREVER.
