And so, another year has passed!
At this time of the year, you can't help but look back on the year that just passed. Things that you've achieved or failed to, and the things that impacted you the most.
This year, I am left wondering about people. Maybe it's just the events in life that have come to light recently, or the constant things that have been plaguing the family these few years. It's the matters of the heart that seem to cause the most problems. Selfish desires that we all feel we're entitled to. For the most part of it, views of others do not really matter. But doesn't family matter? Are we that selfish that we're willing to give up family just because our heart desires something else?
The fragility of relationships takes a toll on bystanders too. Just watching what's been build up for so many years just crumble into pieces. It's painful. And depressing.
What can't people just talk it out. Lay it all on the table instead of hiding behind false pretences. What's so difficult. Stop going around the sides, trying to rally support from others when you know this is a battle you have to fight yourself. A battle that you created because of your choice. A selfish choice. If you want this so much, what's so difficult about putting your point across. Fight for your love. Stop causing problems. Stop being selfish.
So this year, I will face my problems head on. Fight for what I want. But not at the expense of family.
