Importance of Family

Ive been thinking about family a little bit and what they actually are. I have nothing in common with them really. I am of a different religion, I look nothing like them, and we don't share any of the same interests really. So why do I hold them so high? They could make fun of me or make me feel horrible about something but I would take a bullet for any of them. The truth is that we chose our families before we came here to Earth in the preexistence. No matter how dysfunctional they are I know that they are mine because I want them to be. I need them and they need me and thats just how it works. I chose them for a reason and Ive been looking for that reason lately. What they are mine. Well as I look and keep my heart open to the idea that i chose them, I am starting to notice the small things that bring us all together and make us a family. I notice the way we all look out for each other and the different things we all bring to the table. We may not all be the same type of people but we do balance each other out. I am so grateful for families. I am grateful for my family most of all and hope that they feel that way too. My advice is if you think you got it bad then step back and really look. You may be surprised to find that you are made for your family.
