Why am I the way.....
I am!
Why do I do the things...
I do?
And each time this voice tells me
Family
They are our first teachers of the otherness ...
People other than ourselves that we must interact with...
I'd imagine if I had a family that communicated well - id communicate better with others
I imagine if we trusted each other more - I'd trust others
I imagine if we loved each other more- I'd be a better lover
If I dealt with my emotions more .... Well you get the picture ...
Now I'm not blaming anyone or trying hurting anyone but I understand when I meet really good people why they are so great .... Or good ...or decent
Do I envy it of course....
Do I wish for it of..... course
But understand that everything has it's clinches
"Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."
Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina, Chapter 1, first line
Russian mystic & novelist (1828 - 1910)
It's the beginning of the things I ponder....
