What's with all the excuses in peoples lives? You know why I miss Germany? Because their weren't any excuses. Family was family and we traveled for one another and we celebrated birthdays and holidays together because that's what families do. We planned summer vacation time together and we spend TIME together - because it was enjoyable and fun.
Fast forward to present day America.
*pointing fingers...*
You can't come because you live too far away and you never have time off from work.
You can't come because your husband is too tired.
You can't come because... just because.
You can't come because you have automobile issues.
You can come to San Angelo... but your schedule is too busy to fit in a quick visit to see me.
You can't come because you don't feel good. You've got to babysit. You've got too much stuff to do.
You can't come because you have kids.
....aaaaaand I don't even hear the rest. It's all blah, blah, blah. If it's important to you, you'll find a way... and if I'm not important to you - then it's ok to let you go. Just because you're not in my life doesn't mean I don't love you. It just means that I'm sick of waiting.
