If you would have asked ten years ago where I'd find myself when I turned 28, my answer would have been something vague about job and an apartment.
Never in my wildest imagination could I imagine myself building my own self from the ground up, supported and loved by the most amazing people I have ever met.
I have always believed in the value of family, but not until I saw the movie "Lilo & Stitch" did I realize that family doesn't always have to mean blood relations. Sure, I had some vague idea that not all people in a family were related biologically, but it never occurred to me that an individual could build their own pack/family without any basis in biology or blood relations.
"Ohana means Family. Family means that no one gets left behind or forgotten."
My family consists of a varied group of people and all of them amazing and brilliant individuals.
There's my soulfriend Jackson, who will soon be a licensed Marriage and Family therapist.
There's the two people I consider my sisters - Nova and Sakuya - one who is an actress (gotcha, Nova) and the other is a university level Political Science expert (bite your tongue, Saku-chan. My blog, my view of things.)
One guy is an accomplished drummer, sound technician, and merchandise seller.
One guy is a music guru and LP expert.
Boy is a licensed Microsoft Network Architect.
If I wasn't so proud of all of them, I would feel inferior and damn jealous. As it stands, I am more than content to stand back and watch all of them reach their dreams, cheering them on for all I am worth. Matters are not helped by the fact that all of them are extremely good looking as well. Smart, funny, and gorgeous - my family is dangerous, for sure.
