Do you ever stop to think what makes you feel and react the way you do? It can be strange to just think that most of my thoughts and reactions were all learned from my home life. Growing up I remember putting myself in any academic, sport, and music program just so I wouldn't have to be home. Becoming an overachiever essentially saved me from the disappointment I gained from home. It is strange to think how much of that has changed as I have gotten older. I guess sometimes even your family as much as they "should be" pure and loving in fact created so much of your first heartache. Not to go into too much detail, but thinking back to growing up I always tried to save people in my family... "save" I'll use the term loosely but I always wanted to see the devil in the brightest of lights. I always forgave even when I knew I would never forget, because its what family does. Isn't that beyond dysfunctional? How has it taken me this long to realize most of ever...
