Never Turn Your Back On Family

Family is really deeper than we think, it goes beyond the blood link, far beyond the facial resemblance, still far beyond the characters difference, yes beyond the house, yes goes past the food, the celebrations, it goes past all of our definitions, at last we would settle at defining it as Gods perfect people for us. Don't know how your home feels, don't know about other homes where brothers hates brothers, even till the extent of killing or causing harm, but this I can say and it's TRUE, God never makes a mistake of the family he places you in.

I too can't lie about being in good terms always with my family, have you met my siblings, I bet you haven't seen such annoying people before, just when you think you're very concious of your reactions, just in a second they can make you lose it. Oh I've fought, am I still going to fight, though I feel like I've grown past that stage and we can't be acting so childish fighting over the slightest provocation, but we never know yet, hurtful words could be said, and you just dont want to let it slide which may lead to the worst case scenarios, in this we still don't stop being family.

It all begins to make sense sooner or later, when you begin to accumulate past events, added to the current, just realizing how stable they have stayed, probably they've stayed so regular that we dont see the sacrifices as much as we should, that sense of entitlement has reduced our show of gratitude greatly, more reason for an article like this, to make us see yet again what we ought to see and not be carried away by what we like to see. Family first is the trend, but how sad it is that we dont follow the trend in real life settings.

Nothing last forever is not just the key word for this article, it is a resounding phrase that can help us choose better. Let's better prioritize our life, not only because God mandates us so, but also because it still wouldn't be enough to say thank you, its the least you can do. No one has ever come through for me as much as family, how unfair it would be to your family that when you finally have gotten the prayers answered that they've all been collectively praying for you to get, just then you choose someone else to enjoy it all, and you still don't think something is wrong.

Well nothing would feel wrong, until as usual that person disappoints you and you have to fall back to those who never left, family. Well they have no choice, it's God ordained, we can only try to live it the best possible way. However there are friends that have earned the spot of being closer than a friend, you wouldn't be wrong to address them as family, not just friends also, cause soon we all finds someone, someone whose not family, but after a while becomes family and we are now entitled to prioritizing this person first, even more than our already existing family, and we all would like it that way.

This he or she eventually becomes the new family bonded by God, by tradition, by religion and soon to be bonded by blood, soon enough you both begets offspring, so yes they now come first. Your new and most loved family, in this your existing family stands by you and on no account should they be forgotten, truly expenses are enormous and may not be enough, but still it's our duty to try our best. Soon comes a time when dad and mom works no more, then we should step in, a lot has been put in us, much more is expected of us, we can do it.

Far from expected, I am not going to kick against you having pleasure, if we keep living our lives without we doing whatever makes us happy, then we may never experience what it feels to be a free man, we all should live as free men., however its very costly and deadly to Continue without applying caution and wisdom, all this I say because the most reasons why people neglect family is to focus on other things that gives them joy, such as drugs, alcohols, womanizing, gambling and other addictive activities, in this we may not stop early but do well to apply wisdom.

To be sincere its very rare to see someone who can self advice him or herself to stop an addiction, most people stop after having a better experience, some of which they've survived, some of which not so good, in all life teaches eventually. This steals from those who are truly deserving, and it is a wrong in all sense, we should constantly be on the lookout to making our family smile and proud of us, true fulfillment too can come from this. Family is everything, when everyone else goes, guess who stays, guess who is going to keep standing and cheering us to get better? Yes you're right Family.

Thanks for taking time out to read, God bless your family for collectively putting hands together to raise a beauty like you. Stay true to yourself, God bless.
