Say what you need to say to lighten the load you are carrying. Say it kindly, of course, and without attacking anyone.
It may change things and it may not, but regardless, you will at least made your feelings known and will no longer be stuffing them which is not good for you. It will feel as if a great burden has been lifted.
If you don't know how to say it then ask God to help you, he will give you the words.
Happy Easter!

You want to set things right,so your heart is in the right place,my friend. By the way nobody is too old to mend bridges. Hell I'm65 but know somethin' I learned there is just so much you can do.Sure,in the past you may have caused some of the problems,hell we all have.
But I'm sure some family members have outdone you in that dept.
Remember the saying:You can choose your friends,but not your relatives.You tried . The hell with it. Don't feel guilty. It'll kill ya.
GOOD LUCK

The only person you are responsible for is yourself. You can't change how someone else behaves but you can change how you react to them. Be kind; don't lower yourself to their standards, and if necessary distance yourself from them.

You can't change others, you can only change yourself.
