Okay, I know I'm the eternal optimist, but, I don't get people. I come from a long line of a lot of people and I can honestly say that there isn't one of them that I don't feel like I can count on for one thing or another. That isn't to say that I can count on each person for every little thing, but we do what we can to help each other out. I'm serious when I say that our blood is thicker than water. Or dollars. At least that has been true for me in my experiences with my family members for 57 years. I don't understand when one won't compromise a situation to help another out.
Seems to me like you should be able to count on family when you can't turn to anyone else. Seems to me like family would recognize and step up to meet a need once in a while even in situations that don't directly benefit them personally. Seems to me that it might strengthen weak relationships to reach out and do a good thing. Seems to me that if folks don't understand these simple concepts; that if they don't value these precious ties, they won't have them. And they don't deserve them. I guess some folks are givers and some folks are takers. And it takes all kinds to make this crazy world go 'round.
This pic is one that makes me feel good. And I really l.o.v.e. sweet potato vine.
