There is an old proverb that says you cant choose your family, you take what the fates hand you. And like them or not, love them or not, understand them or not, you cope. Then there is the school of thought that the family you born into is simply a starting point, they feed you, and clothe you and take care of you, until you are ready to go out to the world and find the old drive.
Who gets to determine when the old end and the new begins, its not a day on the calendar, not a birth day, not a new year. It’s an event, big or small; something that changes us ideally it gives us hope. A new way of living and looking at the world. Letting go of old habits, old memories. Whats important is that we cannot stop believing that we cant have a new beginning. But its also important to remember that admit all the craps are the few things that we are really holding on to.
Gratitude, appreciation, given thanks, it all means the same thing, happy. We are supposed to be happy, grateful for our friends, family. Happy to be just alive whether we like it or not. Being grateful for what it has. Maybe we are thankful with the things we are familiar with and things that we do not know.
