No one is perfect. Everyone has problems, even if they try to hide it.
There comes a point in life that people move on, you don’t stay in one place forever.
There will be toxic people in life. And you just have to learn to deal with the situation in the best way possible.
Something had happened for the family to become broken. They are not as close as they could be.
When something bad happens, it can go one of two ways; grow closer or become more distant. In this instance, they became distant. Even though they were able to relate to one another through the shared experienced, they did not.
Once something is broken, it is harder to mend. Although possible, it is more difficult and requires work. It depends on whether or not they want to work on it or not.
When families break apart, it is possibly the hardest thing to mend. A family is a tight-knit unit in which people exist for most of their private lives. To detach from this unit is not only to cut off one’s biggest support system, but also to lose a part of their homes, as often life for the individual is built around the needs and roles of the family unit.
When a person becomes isolated, this is when they become the most vulnerable to their internal thoughts. The negative self-talk that we all experience is simply made louder by enclosing ourselves in our personal echo chamber. Without the influence of outside support, we are not challenged in our thoughts or views, and therefore we remain stagnant. Though fixing a broken family bond is much harder to do than fixing any other type of bond, it is often the most important to repair or replace because it offers the most structure and dynamic within our lives.
I definitely agree. Just as in any story, conflict is a central driving force in one’s life, and has a tendency to either bring people together or rend them apart.
It is interesting to me to see and observe how groups of people collectively respond to conflict. It can break even the strongest of bonds, and place schisms between close friends. In the same unpredictable way, conflict can serve as a “greater evil” capable of compelling bitter enemies to set aside their differences and cooperate with one another.
