Those two words will always have a big story to tell. My parents are fighting with their siblings, and not only does it affect their relationships but somehow, us kids get involved as well. My family is an average size but we’re all really close when things are okay. The current problem going on is about money, which is basically everyones issue. The other day, I was told by my cousin about the tea going on around the family, and I just was surprised it got so deep that everyone's talking about it. Until today, when my mother called me. It was a hour long phone call about her ranting about the situation, and explaining everything to me. As she goes on, all I could think about is how I could make a difference, or help with this situation. All I could think was, money. The one thing that could break up relationships, and sometimes your life. It’s unfortunate that people who are so good in life, that are selfless and caring, still don’t get the opportunity to be financially stable. No matter what good you do, or how hard you work. Sometimes your life just doesn’t go the way we all hope. But that last word, is the only thing we can do. Hope. Hope for a better tomorrow, a better life, a happy life. I wish there was something I could do, every night I think of ways I could just get things going, but it always leads to one thing money, and sometimes that’s the only thing that can stop us from having our dreams. As of now though, aside from all the family drama. Least we could do now is be grateful for all that we have, and hopefully one day, we will get to where we all dream to be.
