Families come in all shapes and sizes, some connected by blood and some through non tangible bonds. There is no set definition of family in the real world, it means many things to different people.
For me family isn’t blood but it is a connection that I have between myself and the person. I have friends that are like family to me, that doesn’t mean that we hangout everyday, or that we have everything in common. It means that they contain all the traits I want in the people around myself.
Everyone that I would consider family is different, some are athletes, some are hard working driven people, and some are people that are like little brothers to me. By diversifying my family I feel like it has taught me so many different views of life, I have been able to understand why certain people act the way they do. It has also taught me what I like and don't like in people.
Family has always been different from person to person, my meaning of family are the people I love and that's it.

This is a great piece about family. Everything you said about family is true, especially the line about how they contain all the traits you want in the people around yourself. It's these people that helps us learn many things and helps us in seeing different views of life.
