RE: My Estranged Brother Turned 40 - Spending Time With Family

in Reflectionslast year

You can't choose family, and siblings can be the worst of them. Unfortunately. I don't know your situation, but it isn't uncommon and when it comes to not respecting what you are into, that is common too, especially when they don't understand it. At some point, family can drift so far that they are just people you used to know once upon a time. It sounds sad, but letting go can also make room for better, for people who deserve our time and energy, who want and need it, and are willing to reciprocate.

Looks like a nice lake to spend the summer by :)

Thank you for these words. You're absolutely right and the best is of course to accept things as they are. I have come a long way in doing so but it still stirs up some emotions when I do see my brother.
