Family. We don’t choose them — or at least, that’s what we think. But somewhere in the karmic stars, I believe we did. For love. For struggle. For healing. For the exact lessons our soul came here to learn.
Family can be the greatest comfort — and the deepest discomfort. A place where we feel the most love, and sometimes the most pain. You may not always see eye to eye on the “big” things — politics, religion, lifestyle choices — but when you strip it all back, what matters most is love and support.
If you can soften around the disagreements, and separate the issue from the person — from your parents, your siblings, your kin — you might find something deeper. A quiet understanding that beneath it all, they just want to love you. And to be loved in return.
I feel lucky that my family has found that harmony ☯️
My little boy just had a birthday ♊️ and this is the dino cake Tutu ("grandma" in Hawaiian) made. She’s been baking our cakes every birthday and holiday since I can remember. It’s a ritual that has quietly shaped our family over the years — and now, I get to pass it on to my son🎂
P.s. my hubby is here too and some may think we chose each other but we didn't. We were guided towards each other, our heads played no part in our union, it was all heart & soul and trusting the Universe💫
