Man-Made Concept

Family

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing?

Of course not

It’s worth all the teachings,

Trials, tribulations,

Chaos, and dysfunction
Because they all brew growth

HOWEVER

It’s not worth having

Loyalty for your family over

Loyalty to yourself

It’s not worth denying

Yourself the life you want

It’s not worth remaining in

An abusive family

It’s not worth putting them

First before yourself

It’s definitely not worth

Turning the other cheek

It’s not worth pretending

You don’t hear, see, feel, or think

If you’re family isn’t

Providing the nurturing

Love-thriving environment

You yearn for:

LEAVE

Don’t be a hero

Don’t be a martyr

Don’t be a saint

Your life, existence, energy,

Soul, spirit, bliss, inner-being

Is trillions of times

More important that the

Manmade concept of
Family

You First

Family… Who cares ;)
