What is family? They were the people who claimed you. In good, in bad, in parts or in whole, they were the ones who showed up, who stayed in there, regardless. It wasn’t just about blood relations or shared chromosomes, but something wider, bigger. We have many families over time. Our family of origin, the family we created, and the groups you moved through while all of this was happening: friends, lovers, sometimes even strangers. None of them perfect and we couldn’t expect them to be. You can’t make any one person your world. The trick was to take what each could give you and build your world from it.

You have to look at what you have right in front of you, at what it could be, and stop measuring it against what you’ve lost.

My country paradise

When you’re thinking that you’ve got no one
Feeling like it’s all too much
When all you wanna do is run
Hold on
You’re not the person who you wanna be
Feeling like it’s hard to breathe
You can change everything
Just hold on

Time always heals
Although it feels like it won’t end
So please
Trust me when I say to you
Your heart will mend

And now I seem so different
I’m confused, so distant
What I gotta do to show you
Remind you of the girl that I once knew
