My brother called me tonight we have always had so much in common but then there came a time in which we both realized we were alike yet we had some differences between the both of us. I being much younger certain things came to be between the both of us.
I think that is something that does happen in any family. I just go with the flow with it as I don’t place that much weight into it but when we do talk there is something that we always do have some things in common. And how much I think he feels caught between a rock and a hard place at times within his own relationship but in some way they still have been married for ten years.
My sister in law’s father was the head of one of the banks here in Canada and seemingly she does not take much to the family and when he called I knew that when he called for her she was not going to come to the phone. For myself I really don’t care as that one has a serious problem. It’s funny how postures can blemish some things. But the way I see it when I was married every week we would call our families from abroad.
But we all have our own plights and you can’t buy your family but you can buy your friends. Kidding here, get this one she will not allow him to be on the internet to even watch things or anything and I think its all do to trust or it may be something else.
So here I am on this multiply with and just writing things in my own way. We all have our own things within life. So for myself it’s just going about things in which I desire. Yet it was nice to talk to him as there was a time I really was so ticked with him but now I just leave understand it for what it is...
I'm not a phone person either, but it's because I've learned over the years it's never for me. I don't want to be the secretary, taking messages, going to find the one they called for, etc. On the occasions it is for me, I try to be cordial at least. We all have some difficult relations, sometimes we don't really know why. Got to be your own style, that's all you can do.
ReplyDeleteByron I couldn't agree with you more.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Jack, I like the new page. Looks nice. You are so right, all families have those who don't want to bother with the rest of us. Having 5 brothers I am only close to two and my one sister. The ones closest to my age, I always got along better with them then the younger brothers.. I think it is because the others married woman that are deeply into material things and as the saying goes, that not my cup of tea. But we are cordial on holidays and such. It is always a pleasure to read of your daily happenings .Prayers for your mom. Go and enjoy the day! Hugs and Smiles, Sandy

ReplyDeleteI took a class that helped me deal with the abuse I took as a child and I will be forever grateful to my instructors for the peace they have given me. I don't think I would of survived with out it.
ReplyDeleteI have a sister in law that keeps my brother from doing anything but bringing in the paycheck. I always thought of him as strong, now I know how soft he really is.
Your understanding is a great gift to those around you.
