I know a lot of people who don’t like spending time with their families. Whether it’s because they think their family is too boring to be around for long amounts of time, or they simply don’t get along well with the people who make up their family, once the holidays arrive and everyone goes off to be with their family, I get a countless number of emails and text messages from my friends who are complaining about how unbearable it is to be stuck with their families.
Because I have seen just how much people can dislike their families, it makes me feel really good to know that I have such a good relationship with the members of my family. Although there are times when we argue, for over ninety percent of the time that we are together with each other, the time we are spending is a great experience. Not only do we all love each other, but we genuinely like each other, which makes it a lot easier to spend extended amounts of time with each other. So, while not everyone feels this way, I for one am glad that I get to spend the holiday season with all of my family members.
