Family,
They choose to love and accept all of you
A love that goes beyond birth
Friends
People in your life that care
Take the effort to better relationships
Bring out the best in each other
Look at flaws and imperfections as what makes people unique
Are the ones who stick around
Family,
One of a kind
Precious
Unforgettable
Cherish,
And never let them go

I also wrote this for an assignment for school about what family meant to me and others.
