Love is the Foundation of Family
It is extremely difficult or even impossible to come up with a formula on behalf of all human societies in defining the family. Throughout history, societies have perceived the concept of family depending on their living order and structures and have attributed different meanings according to their conditions.
For example, in primitive societies or in the period when people started to live under the family structure, and after, the intertwined "Great Family" structure such as tribe, lineage, tribe, clan is common. Right after this structure, there is the "Extended Family" Order, which includes relatives such as grandfather, grandmother, aunt, uncle, and aunt. In today's modern societies, the concept of nuclear family consisting of only parents and children remains valid.
The emergence of the modern family was based on the abolition of slavery and the feudal structure as a result of social evolution, the development of the consciousness of freedom and democracy, and the acceptance of equality between men and women. However, although industrialization, modern life style and urbanization have affected the relations between family members in many ways, the "family" institution is still alive, thankfully.
Based on these definitions, according to post-modern understanding and cultural interactions, family is a system in which a group of people who share a common past, present and future expectations exist or live in mutual relations. This is the independent nuclear family structure.
In the sociological sense, the family is the smallest unit of society and if its structure is strong, that society is also sound. The healthy, peaceful life and development of societies depend on mutual love, respect and tolerance of their members, starting with the family.
“What are the benefits of being or starting a family?” when we ask:
* The person gets rid of loneliness.
* It is a moral institution. It educates people.
* It is the place where the first manners, morals, behavior patterns, speaking style, communication with people and the teaching of maintaining it, which will be necessary throughout life, are learned and acquired for the first time.
* Provides training on life difficulties, problems, understanding, empathy skills, and the continuity of good and correct relations with people.
*A happy and peaceful family in an environment of love makes people experience heaven and vice versa.
I think we can easily give answers.
The fate of our future is hidden in the minds, hearts and working capacities of today's children. A good and beautiful world will await us, in line with the increasing proportion of our children who are questioning, thinking, adopting the universal culture, and whose conceptual power, education and training level are advanced for our future.” The youth that will carry us to this world will grow up in families that are strong, peaceful, seeking knowledge and accustomed to reading.
Parental love and support, formed in the family environment, gives the light of first learning and moving forward before schools. We learn to be happy in the family. Happiness is a way of life that we mature with the culture, intelligence, understanding and intelligence we have developed with our personality, starting from our childhood.
The first key to happiness is hidden in the ability to smile and laugh. Cheerful mood is a richness for our personality. Being optimistic is a valuable habit. Love, on the other hand, is an indispensable feature of being human!
The cornerstone of a strong family structure is undoubtedly "LOVE". It is a blessing bestowed upon us by Allah, which increases as we give love, and for which no fee is paid. In the family, we learn the structure of loving and being happy, which will give us strength, energy and well-being for a lifetime, in the most correct and permanent way.
My order of thoughts and feelings towards my children is as follows:
-Take care of your mother
- Protect your family integrity
It starts with the words.
Families formed by happy, peaceful and healthy individuals who are fed with the concepts of love and respect are indispensable institutions not only for themselves but also for our national unity. Societies consisting of families with the principle of unity and togetherness are more successful in solving all their problems. If we want to protect our future, let's try to do our best to protect our strong family structure with the belief of a sacred duty.
