get to know my family better

I’ve come to realize, the people I know the least are the very people I’ve known the longest. It’s quite depressing to realize that you don’t know your family very well, and they don’t know you very well. I mean, damn. I hate family time just as much as the next arrogant teenager. But I would love to get to know my family, or atleast a few family members, on a deeper level. Not just the basics. You know? Make them my friends. As well as my relatives. Make them the people I know I could always run to with my problems, sorrows, joys, dreams, struggles. Everything. I just want to learn to love everything about the people I care most about.
