You learn that the right people will always understand you.
Your cousins have been with you since day one.
They know you in a way no one else will.
Katie Drazdauskaite
You never feel the need to explain yourself to your cousins; they already understand.
You learn that disagreementswillhappen (and you learn thats totally okay).
So you learn how to have healthy disagreements.
You learn how to forgive.
You learn how to apologize.
And, most importantly, you learn how to let shit go.
You learn how to laugh at yourself.
No one knows you as well as your cousins do.
This means theyalsoknow the parts of you they can poke fun at.
They see all your quirks and flaws and find a way to bring lightness to those qualities.
You learn that your downfalls dont make you unlovable; they make you human.
You might as well laugh about it!
Your cousins are, after all.
You learn what love truly is.
Your cousins stuck around when other people left.
They love you unconditionally, and you them.
Your cousins showed you what love is and how youll never be without it.
You learn how to be a good friend.
Your cousins taught you how to be the best friend you’re free to be.
They showed you how to be supportive and caring and loyal and fun.
You learn how to be grateful.
You feel lucky and humbled you have the family you were given.
You cant imagine a life without your cousins and you dont want to.
Youre too grateful they exist.
