Family

They say Family is the most important thing, the most important people, and that to never take them for granted. But what if every single one of them doesn’t support you on what you dream to do. What if EVERY single person is doubting your dreams, ambitions, or plans? I lost connection with everyone I was possibly close with except my boyfriend and my two cousins. Other than that, I can honestly say I have no one who will stand behind me for what I am doing, or have been through to understand where I am today. So crazy because I was balling my eyes out about how much I love my parents so much, to the next day them telling me that they don’t understand what’s going on anymore and lose control on me. I am honestly so grateful to have them as parents and for everything they gave me, even when they couldn’t. But today, it seems like my mom couldn’t hold it in any more. She too, has become one of the people I did not want to associate myself with. But what’s sad is that, everyone around me, that I love regardless of what they say of me... it’s them who I pray for at night. It’s them that I pray to God to keep healthy, to be happy, safe. But what do we do when everyone turns their back, and theres no way out the situation. Do I become selfish and not pray for them anymore? No, I would never because I know that one day, this will pass, and one day I will make it out and be where I have always dreamed of. Until then, all we could have is faith.
