(19) - The Cabin Blues

The family is probably the greatest aspect in my life.  For that reason I make sacrifices to spend as much time with them as possible.  For that reason I took this past weekend to drive 5 hours north to Idaho/Wyoming area to watch General Conference at our family cabin.  It was a great weekend, but very short.  I guess that's the reason why I'm sad to leave.  I'm getting packed up to depart from my family and I feel the "blues" setting in.  It's a weird feeling because I know I'm not leaving my family for good.  I know that it's not "good bye" rather "see you later."  Despite this fact I still get those feelings of melancholy.  I wish I could just spend my days on end with these great people that I call family.  I love them and cherish them.  Sometimes we fight, quarrel, and disagree but I care about them.  It's a great feeling to know that we will be able to spend eternity together (hopefully we won't disagree/fight as much during that time though. haha).  I know that the family can be together forever, and these precious moments that I have shared with them will never be forgotten.
