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.
