Your parents may have passed away.
You may have grown apart from your siblings.
You may have lost touch with your cousins.

Your family members arentalwaysthe people that your genetics bind you to biologically.
Your family isnt something you are born into.
Some of your family members are related to you.

But others are old classmates, neighbors, lovers, in-laws, friends.
Call the people who matter to you family.
Call the people who you might actually count on your family.

Call the people who make an effort to keep in touch with you family.
Call the people who you cannot imagine living without family.
Because they are the only family that matters.
