My kind of Family What kind of family do you have?Is there a point in which a family had a grudges ,disagreement ,happy moments,loving and understanding one another.Is there a favoritism,a groupings between one family to another. Even if there is a reunions every year and other gatherings but still family isn't perfect at all.Recently,our family had a conflict and it really reveals the real attitude of one another. My family isn't always happy all the time,there are lots of flaws and differences,but still striving to be united as one.Family should always be loving each other,even if there are disagreements but love will surely bind us all together. These are my kinds of family; The conservative We have a family member that is very conservative,everytime we had a gathering,they will not join during the time of videoke,or sing along.Especially when others will dance budots,because some of my nephews were very fun of dancing it especially when they get drank.My conservative family will just disappear among the group,and go home right away.They are often misinterpret,because they just stay on the side,of course because they don't drink.But I understand their point,they are just abiding with the teachings in their religion,and trying to live a holy life for God. The sensitive When there is an occasion like birthday party,wedding,or fiesta these family members will not join if they are not invited personally .And when they heard some words or jokes that they might be disappointed,they will not join again next time.Be extra careful with talking with these family because they are just watching your words and trying to see if everything is just fine.Sensitive people are watching actions and gestures of the family. The Clown In my family we have a clown,someone who makes us laughed and everyone like him always.If this person is missing in action,our gathering will not be alive. The Sponsor This family of mine was the one who always sponsor our gatherings,who will buy the food,drinks and even give cash to the rest of the kids.He is loved by everybody of course,of being a generous man and a very approachable person.But he died recently,that's why this year,our gatherings will be more on contribution and not to rely in just one person.We loved him so much not just because of material things,but because he is very nice to all of us.I'm gonna miss him so much. The Short-tempered This family member is often impatient,hehe in short he is always nagging to those who are making undesirable gestures. The active This kind of family is always participate,gives intermission number,and acknowledge everyone in the family gatherings.They don't need invitation,or formal approach,as long as they have the same surname they will surely attend,in short,they don't gave headache to the clan. These are my kind of family,we are perfectly imperfect people who belong in one name.And even if there some members of us had grudges with one another,I still believe that at the end of the day,they will meet in forgiving each other. Family is always love,now and for always.I just don't like when these family will encounter; Misunderstanding Recently,my family had misunderstanding,especially the involve are girls.They did not meet halfway with their talks and conversations,that's why they fall into hurting each other. Miscommunication When the intention is good but not properly communicated with the rest of the family,it's now become a grudge with the few. Family as one When one is hurt,everybody is affected,just like one body,when our finger is hurt.The rest of our body can feel the pain,because it was a part of it.A family is belong as one,and it will always be. Forgiveness is a must Have you tried no talks,or conversation with your family for 1 or 2 years?It happened.to us before,when one of the family have felt disappointed,it reaches 2 years before they get reconciled. But today,especially we are in crisis,I would like to say,that we should always be forgiving,loving with one another so that peace can always fill in our hearts. Family is love .
Salamat.

I agree sis. Every member of a family has their own differences. The clown, I love those people since they are the one who give a happiness and enjoyment when there is a family gathering. It always exist when it comes to misunderstanding. It's always there. Some families experience with it having a misunderstanding with their relatives. The sponsor one, I remember my aunt she always sponsored when it comes to foods when there will be a family reunions.
Every family comes in different forms and in various character. No family is perfect. Conflict is part of the journey. We just have to be compassionate enough to understand each other's differences. If we get that, then we are good to go.
No family is perfect, by the way, today I wrote something about my family and the holidays and one part that stood out is that there were no inconveniences, so don't worry, everything happens and we should only highlight the good things.
