A thought on Family

You can’t expect non-family to do family things. You can’t expect them to give you much. That’s why when you don’t have a family or you have a family that doesn’t serve its purposes, you will find yourself too exposed to everyone else who will take advantage of being exposed to you, because they are not family.

That is also why people who can find family outside the literal family are so lucky. It’s so rare. And it should be appreciated, not taken for granted.
