“Families are like branches on a tree. They grow in different directions, yet their roots remain the same.”
You can’t help choosing your family, they are a gift by Almighty to you as you are to them.
Being surrounded by family is the biggest thing which a lot of people cherish while a lot don’t value while another lot miss! Yes, this is the scenario which comes into force when there is a thing related to family and people have to tell as to what a family means to them.
Family means fun outings, lots of cousins for mischief, loving grandparents who are always there to protect you from your parents’ scolding, uncle and aunt to pamper, amazing round table discussion over dinner and what not. Every occasion, every festival feels like an occasion and festival as you don’t need people from outside to grace it because you have a family to back up! They are always there to share your happiness and sorrow, stand by you through tough times but also guide you when you do something wrong. You can look up to them and don’t need to be inspired from outside.
But there are a lot of people who don’t cherish the moments being spent with family because they think they would always be there and thus don’t understand above perks of a family. Being surrounded by cousins is like a nightmare for them, being in and around others in the family is like a security breach for them and what they want is just either their parents and siblings or to stay alone only. They don’t value the time they spend with their family members, they don’t find it special when they celebrate festivals with them, have them around their birthdays etc. Yes, don’t be shocked! These people do exist. It is not that everyone in this world loves to have people around.
The people who suffer the most are the ones who respect their family and cherish their moments but can’t do so because they are quite far away from them, maybe for their job or study. It is really hard for them to cope with the fact that they are all alone without the love and support of their family, knowing the fact that they are always with them but not seeing them around sinks their heart deep into sadness and grief.
Thus, it is really essential to understand the importance of having a family, ask those who don’t have one and die for having one because they want that love, those mischievous cousins and what not but can’t because of multiple reasons maybe which they themselves might not be knowing. Family is one’s strength, one’s peace, which makes house of bricks and cement a home to live in, reside in and a place to relieve off the burden and sadness,only to make other members happy.
