a night with Kafka

after a night with kafka's metamorphosis, i am reminded of how a single incident in a family can turn out to be the center of everything, that it saps all attention and either ends up to cold relationship, depleted resources or both. what at first needs adjustment slowly becomes a burden later on and having each member of the family withstanding all the ill-effects. psycho-emotional even physical exhaustion leads even to more problematic relationship among the people involved, with of course the one who is really suffering bearing the most of guilt, disappointment and frustrations. and until it is lost in the creator's own perfect time, that's the moment everyone can truly move on and see what's really happening around. very much like, what happened to my family when mom got terribly ill.
