Friday wild card



Friday wild card.
Why is it that brothers and sisters grow to dislike each other so much once they leave the nest? You"d think it would be easier to simply offer love and support. My own mother had a great relationship with her five sisters. After they all started hitting their 40"s and 50"s it all went to hell for one reason or another and now they hate each other. My father-in-law hasn"t spoken to his brothers in twenty years. My wife has virtually no communication with her brothers. DFO: One of the great blessings in my life is the love my five siblings and I share. We all enjoy one another"s company. There are no outcasts. Our mutual shared faith, which we all found as young adults, has a lot to do with the cohesion and love. We were drifting apart before God got ahold of us. The oldest three all married and divorced fairly young.
