What Makes Life Good

"Having a place to go - is a home.  Having someone to love - is a family.  Having both - is a blessing."  

~ Donna Hedges

What is a family? Well, Google says that family is the basic social unit of the society; that family represents people living together by ties of marriage, blood, or adaptation. But for me, they can be not only your parents, they are also the people who are dear, important, and those who take good care of you. People who are always there to support, love you and help you in times of need. You stay together in spite of the all the problems in life.

In this point of view, the family is the group of members who consists of the most important people in our lives. And people who have no families are always lonely because there is no one who is taking care of them. Family is someone you can hold on to. You trust them, they trust you. Having a family makes your life complete. Some have the 'I-don't-care' attitude when it comes to family; but they don't know that those people are the ones who'll support them 'til the end.

Having a family is the greatest blessing you have. Like I said, some don't have one and they are lonely, so treasure your families. They are the ones who can understand you and fight for you.  Just be grateful you have one. I can compare family to gold, they are hard to find yet they are precious and many people treasure them. So love your families and cherish your moments with them while they are still living here in Earth; because the time will come when you're gonna say goodbye...

One of the good things of life that God has given is the family. Parents and children, aunts and uncles, grandparents, and even friends are God's way of making us feel that we have a special place in the world, somewhere that we belong.

"The family.  We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together."  ~ Erma Bombeck
