Friends and Family; Water/Blood

Today my parents decided that I am ungrateful. We recently lost our house which was repossessed by the bank and was very kindly offered to stay in the house of some acquaintances. At first I was not fond of the idea no, but then I realized how lucky we were and how kind the gesture really was. I’m living in this house but it is just a place where I sleep. It’s not my home, I can’t go get whatever I want out of the fridge or just lounge in the living room; it’s just not the same. Apparently me going out with all my friends all the time during my senior year has deemed me as ungrateful. I’m ungrateful because didnt know this family met on Tuesday’s to have family discussions. I’m ungrateful because I don’t hang out with them in the living room. Apparently, according to my dad, the reason my family isn’t coming to my graduation is because I don’t talk to them. My mother works in the home office all day, my sister is either at school or playing with the girls. And my dad, my dad is on the computer all day. I’m ungrateful because I’d rather make use of my time having fun then sitting in a house with nothing to do but watch movies on my phone. My dad thinks that my friends are all a joke, and maybe they are. But to me, right now, they are everything. My little handful of friends are my family no matter what he thinks or says. They make me laugh and smile. They make my day. And right now they’re what I need. I love them, and nothing is going to change that. I am grateful. For everything. But right now they are all I’ve really got to hold me up. So to them I thank.
