There are still conservative type of kin relationship despite the continuing liberation of our beliefs and preferences. Finding new activities adds up to another distraction and increase of gap. We forget about the borrowed time, that we will soon have to say goodbye with the people around us. We focus on the pleasure of material thing, swayed in the lust and ecstasy of less important desires that we forget that it's still the living relationship that completes us.
It's always the wise saying, “Live like it's the last day of
your life” that I embrace when it comes to any relationship. Being
older now and have tasted what's life outside the zone make me fail
to remember once in a while what I hold as an ideal when I was a kid.
