You Can Choose Your Friends But You’re Stuck With Your Family!!
I think I am getting to that age where you realize you can now only spend a limited amount of time with your family. Now that it has been a couple of years since I’ve lived permanently with my family, I have noticed each year that goes by, I am able to spend less and less time with them before becoming annoyed at their presence. I know that sounds terrible but I have to speak my truth. I adore them with all my heart, but now that I am not around their, let’s call them quirks, on a day-to-day basis, they become painfully more visible in the moments we are together. It’s like when you leave your room for a while and come back in and notice that smell that your nose had been accustomed to before but now smells pungent after spending some time in the fresh air. I cherish the moments I have with my family now that we live apart, but at the same time, they must be short & sweet or else they will sour.I think I am getting to that age where you realize you can now only spend a limited amount of time with your family.
