FAMILY KNOTS

By Ruth Schimel

FAMILY KNOTS

Families are complex mixes of joys, opportunities and conflict,
Of unaddressed resentments and misunderstandings,
Full of repeated patterns of behavior that keep people static, often frustrated,
Perhaps adrift.

Fear of reaction and disruption postpones untying or at least loosening these knots
Which offer one of better ways to open the veins that lead to true intimacy,
Sadly thwarted by anxieties and calcified habits that rob time and energy:
From the imagination, hope, courage and action
That will free everyone to reframe relationships for making a difference.
