Family

People make family an important part of your life, and that's great but I don't think most of the things they say are necessarily true so I don't really believe in family family family. They like to say family is blood, but everyone is technically blood and everyone is related in some way shape or form. Just because someone is more closely related to you doesn't mean they are better people, or are always going to be there for you. Friends and other people can be just as good as family. They make it seem that family are the first ones to love you, and give you unconditional love which isn't always true. Would you choose the people who raised you your whole life even though they aren't "blood" or your biological parents in the end? Others can care for you just as much or even more. I know so many people who have family that hurts them,and I don't understand why they would keep that connection with them and see them as anything if they get treated badly.

Now I'm not saying to dis own your family because they have taken care of you (if they have) since whenever, but this thing that people say about it just isn't always true. Just remember the people that have always been there for you and those who love you.
