Sometimes

Sometimes, when I looked back, I regretted the years I let go of family for friends but mummy kept telling, things like that happened because I was young. She said, it is fine, you too need time. As much as it sounds comforting for that moment, I know that what I did was unforgivable. I still remember how she said it and it broke her heart so much. Nevertheless, she pretended that it didn't hurt her. That my friend, is what mothers do for their kids.

Sometimes, I did give up to fix my broken home. Then, friends came into the picture. They showed love and remind me of things that family cannot be compensated by anything in this whole world. Friendship alone isn't enough. They won't be there like how family does. So, I crawled back to mum. 

I hope someday I would be able to fix my broken home. I might need courage to do this plus lowering my ego. Sometimes, the reason why we fight too often is because we have so much in common. But we forget to see it from other people's perspective. 

We should all remind ourselves that you wont feel up for the world without family in the picture. You can have all the best things in the world yet without family , you are empty. If you think a loving and attentive partner is enough for you, let me tell you, it aint enough. Because the love of a father, a mother and siblings aren't equal to anything.
