Family matters...

Haven't had much time to post recently. Bro's been home which means quality family time, since it's probably one of the last... prolonged periods i will see him. It's always an interesting time when the whole family gets together... but apart it seems things are more peaceful... but i do love family feuds once in awhile hehehe though preferably with me not involved... which it use to be... but not so much anymore thankfully. Family fighting is the best of any type of tension between a set few people. This is for the reason that after the smokes cleared and people get their space... it seems that all is forgiven... though sometimes not said verbally.. it's sorta implied... to just move on and forget about whatever small difference that each other had. Maybe it's because after all the years of fighting everyone involved knows what leads to what and it's just not worth the stress/hassle of actually keeping a small 'grudge' against family members.

Though of course there are times where there are bitter arguments to the point where "the big guns" come out... i'm sure you know what i'm talking about... the comments that hit deep down and bring out the worst kind of rage in people... the bickering back and forth just feeds the fire for some massive explosion where people stop talking to each other until someone 'apologizes' to another... thankfully i haven't seen anything of the type in my family for a loooonggg time... but when i was younger i witnessed such firefights between my rents.... and had my own battles... versus my brother... I'm not usually the one to really be persistent about arguing, i'd rather just walk it off and just cool down than waste my breathe in something that isn't worth it. I remember a couple unique situations where i've popped... where i've just raged at a family member trying to prove a point... i think it runs in my family... to fight with passion at certain things... i dunno... it comes and goes i guess.... though i have also just straight out bolted out my house to take a walk and 'cool down'... so depends on the situation or if i feel like shouting my face off lol...

Family matters have cooled down since i went to college though. House fights are rarer... or their just shorter and are brushed away like dust on the floor. I guess you learn your family eventually and things just run a lot more smoother... I like it though.



Anyways i wanna write more about family foundations for relationships, but i'll save that for another post... =]

Thanks for reading,
