This week has been one of reflection and reconnection. I have a blended family; step-mother, step-father, step-siblings, half-siblings, plain ole sisters, brothers, you catch my drift. We all know what those titles mean within the family unit, however, do the people who have those titles warrant less or more of your attention?
Though we all may not keep in touch on a regular basis and we may not phone as often as we should -- I love them. I may not like them sometimes, just as they may not like me sometimes, we may lead completely different lives -- but to me they're not step-anything, they're not half-anything, they are the true and originals -- I have three sisters and one brother. We may not all be blood related, but they are my brother and sisters, whatever title society gives them... They're my family.
Have a great day and week-end.
