Vortex

Well, today has been a bust.  

Rise to the surface, take a breath and feel the sun on our faces only to be pulled down by the whirlpool of drama that stems from so much in this family.  The line that demarcates where to push and where to yield is more of a broken path of breadcrumbs than a definitive line.  This ambiguity brings with it so much pain, fear and tears.  

Couched in the many layers of culture, familial upbringing, historical interaction and disappointment; the smallest disagreement can and often does spin into a vortex of dissension and upheaval.  So, here I sit with a post-emotive hangover with a household suspended in inaction.
