Families can be sweet, supportive, funny, snobbish, or a combination of anything. Oh sure there are the separate personalities of everyone in the family, which can bring things to the maddening end of the spectrum. There are the outgoing personalities that get along with everyone no matter what, you also have the ones that prefer to be part of the background for what ever reason they may have, and everything in between.
A family's personality make-up can go back several generations or each generation of a family can have their very own personality make-up. You maybe asking what is a family personality make-up? Well I have the answer you may be looking for or not, it's just my personal opinion an opinion I have formed due to my experience with my family through the good, the bad, the ugly, the sad and the funny. All of those examples seem to happen at once in family…sometimes anyway.
A family's personality make-up is…well for lack of a better word made up from each persons individual personality. For example a family may have someone who is a sports nut, another who loves to fuss over everything and everyone, a couple of people who love to joke, one who is a snob, someone else who is a brat, and another who is…well let's just say loss or a player… for lack of a better term. This would be an interesting family, wouldn't you think? I think so sometimes anyway other times this family can be absolutely maddening.
Yes you just met a small portion of my family. My family is large, with close to fifty plus cousins on one side alone you can only imagine the personality differences that occur along with the occasionally personality clashes that can occur from time to time.
But in the end when the bad, the ugly, and the sad happen family is always there to support each other -- at least mine is anyway. I hope yours is too.
Enjoy your family even in the maddening times it's the only family you'll have unless you are very lucky.
