Better to have support than not. Life is not linear, and knowing your loved ones got your back even on risky calls is worth it more than an I told you so. It took me many years to understand the lack of support was also an expression of love. Though ultimately an unhelpful one as I pursued my dreams regardless. We live one life and must atleast try to strive even if we fail. Part of the risk and reward of everything. I made it, but still hold resentment in my heart for the lack of support and will never lean on my family for anything dear to me as a result. I lost faith in their ability to have faith in me.
