Wanting Family is a Normal Human Trait.

 And I guess I forget that sometimes... as if most of the people I know don't also share that sentiment in some way or another.

It was nice to be reminded of this thing as I began to know a fellow I've know of for a while but have never met in person. He's a jolly fellow but definitely said in a very sober, clear way that family is a very important thing and that he understood my drive to find one. It was refreshing but almost entirely unexpected... sadly.

Now my resolve has become somewhat greater. I need to work hard and put myself into more situations for luck to manifest than ever before.
