because
i know it takes two hands to clap in any relationship and i know i should appreciate what i have more because after all blood is thicker than water. the first people you go to should be your family members.
yet somehow i've managed to tow the line. i've managed to effectively estrange myself from my family. if you ask me what my brother's plans are for his future, to be honest, i have no clue. if you ask me what my sister's best subject in school is, i'll just give you a blank stare.
and in this world where technology has supposedly broken down barriers, i find it hard to communicate with my own family. the mothership is pissed because i'd rather spend time reading the news online than talk to her. this streak of independence which i've grown so accustomed to has shaped me. maybe i appear to enjoy it; or maybe it's been conditioned and engrained into my very being since the time i had to make my own way home after school as my mother had to look after the two siblings.
i don't think i want to inflict this kind of a thing onto my own kids. maybe i won't have any.
