The concept of family has always been seen as "blood ties", such as: parents, siblings, grandparents, and in marriage husband, wife and children. But it must be understood that family is much broader than a blood issue, because there are various affective relationships that also constitute as family, and need to be respected. We always hear from older, more experienced people that we should love, respect, obey, and support our family.
What are the pillars of a family?
Therefore, it is through the family that we learn everything we take into our lives. It is in the family that we find learning lessons and receive examples for our behavior and attitudes. Whenever we need comfort, it is in the family that we find that support that strengthens us and encourages us to move forward stronger.When a family is united and trusting, based on true feelings, it is always easier to find this support. Feeling loved and cherished within a family is very positive for our emotions. Our good emotional survival depends a lot on true feelings.
Our personality usually has a strong family influence, it's not a rule, but we all carry a bit of what it is in us. The family is an institution of love, support, protection, affection and welcome.If you have a family that offers you a good foundation, thank them and reciprocate with a lot of love and respect, but if you don't receive positive values from your family, if there is disunity, try to find out what made it that way and start to change that reality with good communication, strengthen ties and understand that for there to be happiness in a family it is sometimes necessary to give in.
The healthier the family life, the more complete and happy it will be. Take care of your family, whether it's blood or not, because it's healthy for everyone. Be happy as a family. Always invest time every day in family life.
