Families. What can you say about them? My family consists of a total of six members, including my two parents, Kathy and Monte. I have two sisters, Melissa (26) and Katrina (25), and a younger brother, Zack (18).

Like all families, we’ve been through some good times, and we’ve been through some bad times. I remember when us siblings would fight constantly, head over heels. But as we grew older, we began to understand each other, and I think we make a wonderful family, just as we always have.

My Home

Your friends will know you better in the first minute you meet than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years.

Richard Bach, “Illusions”

After a While by Veronica A. Shoffstall

After a while you learn the subtle difference Between holding a hand and chaining a soul, And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning, And company doesn’t mean security, And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts And presents aren’t promises, And you begin to accept your defeats With your head up and your eyes open, With the grace of a woman, Not the grief of a child, And you learn to build all your roads today Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans. And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight, After a while you learn That even sunshine burns if you get too much. So you plant your own garden And decorate your own soul, Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, That you really are strong. And you really do have worth. And you learn and you learn, With every good-bye you learn.
