Family….Why family is important?
Family is basically our little universe in
this huge world. Each member of the family becomes our pillar of strength
during the course of life. We all have our fair share of ups & downs with
family. However, ultimately we always have a family by our side to support us.
The family becomes our primary source of love, support & care. We learn
valuable lessons or morality & ethics from our elders in the family. Family
always shares our sorrow, enhance happiness & sort out confusions.
Protection & Security
In this unknown & uncertain world, we
always get a great sense of security from the family. We feel secure &
protected against several odds of life. Family members always stay with us when
we feel scared & defeated. Not everyone we meet in life is good with us.
Under such scenarios, we can always turn to our family for watching our back
for any adverse event.
Help & Support
With growing age, we often believe that we
don’t need any help from anyone. However, it is not completely true. We can
manage our lives in a much better way if we have people around us to lend a
shoulder. It is always nice to have someone who encourages you when you feel
low on motivation. We feel more relaxed if we have our people lending a hand
for various tasks on hand. This is what the family does best. They understand
our strengths & weaknesses at times & are our guardians &
companions.
Activities to Enhance Family Bond
It does not matter that you are an elder or a
younger member of the family. One can always contribute towards the critical
task of enhancing interpersonal relationships of the family members. These are
a few easy to do & fun activities which we should include in our family
time routine for a healthier & happier environment.
