A Difficult But Important Choice
The phrase, "cut them off," sounds like an easy thing to do, but when it comes to the time to actually cut them off, some people may find it very difficult to do so, most especially when they are emotionally attached to them.
Life is a beautiful place to be in. It brings different people to one's path - the good, the bad and the ugly. Sometimes, we find it easy to walk away from unfavorable friendships while other times, we stop and think for a while without coming to a conclusion of whether or not to cut somebody off. During this time, however, we get hurt the more.
Being emotionally attached to somebody something I like to call a double edged sword. It gives a sense of emotional protection. Not only that, companionship too.
This post is an entry for Hive Learners prompt, Letting go. In this post, I would talk about what I would do if my family be a hindrance to my success. I would answer the question of if I would cut them off or If I would allow them to keep being a hindrance to me.
One major thing about me that, most times, affect my socializing is the fact that I don't really know how to hide the truth. Instead of telling somebody the lies they want to hear, I always tell them the bitter truth. Many people can't handle the bitter truth most times.
Emotions are something I have found a way to suppress. I don't know how, but my heart has gotten very cold to the extent that I don't really know how to express emotions towards people, not even my family.
My family is my world, and I love my family members so much, most especially my Junior brother. He's actually my favorite person in my family after mom because though he is my kid bro, he is wiser than his age. I think he is them most closest to me in my family.
I life, I really want to be successful in all ramifications. I want not just financial success, but I also want to have good relationships with people and my siblings.
Being in a family is one thing I am grateful for. Sometimes, families are the root of somebody's fall. Over here in the east, brother kill brothers because of a piece of land. I heard stories of how my grandfather and his brother had problems because of a piece of land. I was told that my grand father's death was not ordinary, but then, I was not there when it happened, so, its kind of difficult to believe.
If my family members are the blockage I have in my path of success, I would actually cut them off. I would actually not cut them off totally though, but until I achieve the success I seek, I would cut them off.
Until I become what I set out to become, any distractions or hindrances in my way is always cut off without remorse. I would not want to permanently cut my family off because they stood in my way. After getting what I set out to achieve, I would reconcile with them and share my achievements with them because my entire life hustle is so that I can share my achievements with my family.
