Family Friends & Forever

In the mist of our journeys we have family, friends and relationships. As we grow we can grow closer or grow apart. When we no longer share the common interested its only so much we can do as far as forcing a friendship to exist now. A lot of times we confused having fun with having a friend. Are we really friends with all our family members. Sometimes the only thing we have in common with certain family members is bloodline. That should be stronger than the average friendship but sometimes it's not. There is a chance that being related to someone isn't always a good thing. By that, I mean you have no choice but to share the same bloodline. I are related with certain members no matter what. That don't mean we have to be in contact just because we are related. We might be related but we have no type of relationship. It's a default relationship due to our relatives. Maybe it's best to have a chose of your association even if they are related. Some family members even you the "we're family" speech to attempt manipulation. Some friends do the same. It's a new year with means nothing but I have my two cents to give. No matter how many friends and family members you have, don't confuse the good times with the meaningful times. Don't expect everyone to understand your growth as a human being. Best friends can become strangers if both parties don't expect growth. Respect.
I guess everybody can't live like the TV show Friends.
