Family Quote by Anonymous
“I heard once that they would rather hear about memories than enemies. Rather hear what was, what will be, than what is. Rather hear how you got it over how much it cost you, rather hear about finding yourself and how you lost you. Rather you make this an open letter about family and struggle, and it taking forever, about hearts that youve broken and ties that youve severed. No doubt in my mind thatll make them feel better”
