Family Isn't Everything

Family isn't everything... We share blood, yes. we may have shared a womb, yes. But that is never an excuse to hurt each other repeatedly. Sharing a parent or grandparent doesn't give us a pass to get away with bullsh** Yes, we don't get to choose who we share a bloodline with. But we surely have a say on what behaviour to tolerate from people. Family isnt everything if they believe you can intentionally hurt them just to satisfy your ego. Really and truly.... Finally, if anyone you share blood with makes you walk on eggshells most of the times, time to live your life. Let them live theirs. Family should not be that romanticised to an extent of losing oneself. Perimenopause has given me this brand new zero tolerance for Bullsh**
