Unexpected Sorrows: Family

Sometimes in life, you go through things that are very unpredictable. Maybe even things you do not deserve to go through. And this can be anything to love, hate, happiness, sorrow, and anything else you can think of. Why does these things happen? What is the purpose of suferring when you know you do good in your life? 

     I been through a lot over the years and I believe I do not deserve these..unexpected suffering. Actually NO ONE deserves it. However, these unexpected situations makes us grow stronger even when we dont understand why. Or even when we do not want to go through them. Some try to avoid the truth; Some embrace it. It really starts with in yourself. This is where family comes along.

   Your family is always there for you and always will be with you. Yeah there are some family members who are just plain...silly crazy. lol. Some are smart, Most are Loving. And some..we really dont talk to just because you never met them before. Overall, When you go through things that hurt you, you have family that is there that will help you. Besides, thats what family is there for.

    In my own experience, My family are very close. There are some that dont talk to each other because...of things that happened in the past. When I was growing up, on my dad side of the family, there was only love. (Of course they fought...thats what family do). Every Thanksgiving or any holiday all the families will come together and laugh, play, even fish out the back yard. However, all of that changed cause an UNEXPECTED event happened. After that, most of the family stop talking to each other just because of it.

   It saddens me because the family use to be so loving to one another. Now, everything has changed. Everyone is on thier own. So now, when one of the family memebers goes through tribulations, most of them do not say a word to one another...some dont even help. But there is always that ONE family memeber who will say..."You know what, You're blood...and I should be able to be there for you when you need me. No matter what happend in the past."

    In conclusion, Family is very important in your life. Even when you never met them..or even if something happens. Be there for your family. Because you never know what might happen...and maybe one day...you want to say "I Love You" to one of them...and then they are no longer here in this world....Regret, hurt, and sadness will overcome you..and thats when your UNEXPECTED sorrow comes into play...

  1. Cuzzin...This reads like an essay! You can tell you are a student, girly! Cute :-)

    Nevertheless very thought-provoking. It can be really hard when family divides. I've had this happen recently and it truly does hurt. This was my brother. We are not really even on speaking terms and his new wife...we don't even acknowledge each other and I feel she is a HUGE part of that divide. But, life goes on...and so will I. As for the "other" family, it's weird because since my mom uprooted me from Ohio as a child, the so-called family never really reached out to me. There is ONE and she is like a sister to me, rather than my cousin. It has just always amazed me how separate it gets, and how people will exert more energy into their friendships than they do the relationships with their family.

    I don't know what your unexpected occurrence was, but it seems like it really took a toll. I'm sorry to hear that. I could tell by some of your FB statuses that you were in pain which is why I wanted to create this outlet for you. I'm glad you are able to "go there" in your own personal space, baby girl. I hope this begins to relieve some of the pressure of pain you are feeling.

    Know that "I'm here" when you need me.

    Love ya!

  2. Thank You Cuz ^^. If You were wondering what the Unexpected event that happened..is when Great Grandma passed away in 2007. That really took a toll to everyone.

    Also I knew I had family in Ohio...I remember having a Family Reunion in Ohio and we were in the basement..watching Goosebumps lol. Thats the only thing I can remember from that time. And also the shirts we wore.

    And yes...My English teacher from High school taught me well. I can create my own style, but I choose to write this way for this particular Note. I'm learning as I go.
