Is Resolution Overrated?!

This morning, my horoscope had this to say: “This week, sensitive issues that may have no solutions will resurface.”

But it’s hard to accept the possibility that some issues may never have complete resolution. This subject of unresolved issues did, however, strike a chord with me due to the arrival of my mother & sister tomorrow evening.

My family is, and might forever be, a hard one for me. To this day, I have failed to “get” them and they have failed miserably to understand me. But we always get through our time together, as long as the topics of sexuality, religion or politics don’t ever find their way to the dinner/coffee table. We know better, and stick to shallower subjects of conversation regarding my old friends from high school (most of which are either knocked up are married to the wrong man/woman), my parents’ business ventures (god forbid they die and Al & I are left to deal with all that complicated shit), and the weather (which currently blows).

Do I love my family? Sure. Can I relate to their Small Town USA mentality? Sure. Do I have to compromise my lifestyle and morals (yes I have some) to make them more comfortable? Not at all, but I did hide my hardcore porn and the “I Heart My Penis” signage last night when cleaning my apartment from top to bottom. Yes, I’m trying to be sensitive!

My (w)horoscope also had this advice: “P.S. Read Scorpio – after all, you did the research.” I have no clue WTF that means, but all you Scorpios out there holler back & tell me what you're feeling.
