“Depending on others doesn’t mean you throwing all your problems on their shoulders. I think that it’s shifting some of the baggage that’s too heavy to bear on to others. That way you can both appreciate the difficulty of the load, and once you’re finished carrying it, you can share in the joy of overcoming it together. Being able to do that without any restraint or hesitation, that’s family, isn’t it? Making them exasperated, making them angry, it’s all okay. The bonds of family aren’t so easily broken.”
