Seems the people I claim as family (because they are) have no sense of "reason". They just tend to always have their idea of it and that's it. I'm tired of always feeling I need to conform to their idea of what reason is. I know right from wrong and I also know what's best and what's not (for the most part). Just tired of a few more things than I should be I guess and thought I'd mention it here... after all - That is what this blog is all about ME :)
