Family. Now there's a loaded word. Love, trust, faith, companionship. That's what that word means to most people, right? They are the people you trust. The people you look forward to seeing. The people who make you feel safe. They aren't just blood-related. They are the friends who ask you why you aren't your usual bubbly self. They are the professors and TAs who take a special interest. They are your significant other who holds you while you're crying. Family are the people without whom you would feel your support system falling apart. It hurts so much worse when those people let you down, too.
