Day 22: Describe the word "family" according to
you
Everyone has a family, right? So what is the true meaning
of family?
According to Google, Family is a group of people who are
connected and live together, bound by blood ties, marriage, or adoption. Family
is the smallest social unit in society.
Well, that's what it says. So what is the meaning of family to me?
In my opinion, the definition of family goes beyond blood
ties. It can be anyone who genuinely
cares for us and provides that sense of belonging, even if they're not related
to us by blood. Although for that, it
might be difficult to find.
Family is where we return. It seems a little poetic and
romantic, doesn't it? The meaning of the place to return is where we should be
able to let go of all the masks that we might use when we're out there. A place
where we can honestly express our opinions, feelings, and everything that's
inside us. It's a place of comfort, acceptance, and support, where we can be
our true selves without judgment. It's a
place where we can feel safe to grow and evolve. A place that will give us
encouragement when we fall and laugh together when we are happy.
That's the definition of family that I think is ideal. But
not all families are ideal. We can't force our families to meet the standards
we have. It's important to appreciate the unique dynamics of our own families
and to focus on the positive aspects. We can't compare our families to others.
Because what we see on the surface may not be the same as what is hidden. Because
we only see a glimpse of their lives
The point is, whatever form your family is, keep being
grateful. Because what you receive now is God's way of making you a good
servant. We should always be grateful for the family we have, and if we see
areas for improvement, we should strive to create a better family dynamic for
ourselves in the future.
What do you think?
