Absence is a friend I know too well. It is rumored to make the heart grow fonder. It can only do that if there is a foundation established, for which the heart can then long.
I have become cynical to the point where I do not see some of the blood-related people as an extension of my identity because their works and deeds do not impact me like I am they. And they are I. They impact me and embitter me away from these relatives, embolden me against these relatives.
