What is family...

As a child, family to most means a mom and dad, along with siblings. In most cases that is true. But in today's society, family is so different. 
I have two older brothers, who in the last year I have seen maybe once, and talked to maybe four or five times. The way we work makes it hard to see and or talk. I won't lie, it hurts at times. Since my parents have passed, I almost feel like I am totally an only child. But, that's where the " other family" works in.
Since I have cleaned up my act, and got my life on the right path, I have found a great church family. And it's more than just finding God. I know have folks to talk guns, work, trucks, tons of things! No, they do not replace the two that I can't seem to connect with, but it helps. 
And then you have a work family. And I am here to tell y'all, I can't stand half of mine. You know what I am talking about, the ones you don't admit your related to! I do work with a few great guys, don't get me wrong, but there are a few I would like to string up by their toes too!
 I guess what I am trying to say is, family is what you make it. I have found a few " brotha's from another motha's, but do miss my own flesh and blood. 
Just wanted to put that out there
