family matters

over this past weekend, i had a chance of bein with my family. we only see each other like this once a year. thats right, youve guessed correctly...family reunion. during the memorial service of those who have passed before me ive realized how great it is to be apart of a legacy that will live on forever. my family is 8 generations and counting, beginning in the 1800s. god is so good, to have blessed my family up until this time.

i honestly dont think anyone has family like mine. we treat everyone the same even if they have ridiculed our name, have tossed us in the dirt. those who have back stabbed us on more than one occasion. but through it all, god sees and hears all.

family is so important to me. friends come and go, but family stays forever. even after those ancestors are long and gone. cherish every moment that you have. dont hold grudges, and try not to catch an attitude over things that you have no control over. and the things that you have control over, if you fail, or make a mistake, learn from that experience. we are only human. we are not perfect, but imperfect we are.

sometimes, we all take things for granted. but as im maturin, i realize that it is too late in the game to start actin like a lil child. i cant go back to my childish ways, because i left those days behind once i started college. i may slack here and there, but i plan on doin what i need to, to accomplish any goals that i have on my list to achieve. i am gonna be somebody.
