Family

Family Family is such a strange concept.? I'm told to love them—? even when they hurt me,? even when they bring sadness into my life. Why?? Why must I love the ones? who brought me into this ?unpleasant world? I hate being told to love them. ?And yet, ?I do. Even when they hurt me,? even when they make me cry—? I still love them.? And I hate that I do. They could do? the most despicable things,? and still— ?I'd love them. That’s the part I hate the most. Family is such a strange thing.? Because even though? I hate to love them so much... ?I love loving them? even more.
