Kay we become family ,as far sa I am concerned, when we act like it. I think this young lady was wrong to feel this way. It sounds like she has little feelings for anyone not "born" into her immedeate family.

She said: "We're not as close to her as other family. She isn't family by blood-she married by Daddy's brother." And, I thought: "What makes one family? This woman gave most of her adult life to this 'family' and still, she is considered an outsider by family members. When does a person become 'family?' Is blood thicker than devotion? And, what of those adopted? Are they family?" Can you see the parallel? Many mixed-bloods, feel this way. They devote their lives to Indian issues--helping any way they can--and, still, they are considered outsiders. This constant separation of mixed bloods from full bloods is a terrible thing! When do we become family--one family? Just thoughts--of a mixed blood...half-breed. Kay =========================================== You have been selected to get a 1000 Free AwardMiles from Topica.
