Families: Blessing Or Something Else?
« on: August 29, 2006, 08:49 AM »

Most of the time, we don't get along with our families, we often don't do business with them or lend them money. Sometimes we don't even talk to them but we still live with them, donate blood or kidney,help them in time of trouble.

Do we just put up with them because we have to or do we just love them and as is populary known "we hurt the ones we love".Is it just one member of your family that you don't get along with or all of them, share your thoughts.

Sometimes we have friends that we do all this for but we still don't regard them as family. Can a special friend take the place of families for people who maybe do not know their family or never get on with their family or has been excommunicated by their family?

Should we just ditch our family and seek solitude amongst the friends that are really true or do we have to stick with our family true tick and thin regardless of what they think of us or what we think of them or our relationship with them.

I always tell my sister , If she was not my sister we will never have been friends.
We cannot pick our family but we can pick our friends.
But if it comes to a life and death matter we pick our family .
As they say Blood is ticker than water.
It has happened often enough that some kind of friends try to come between my sister and i , thinking they can scatter us  to become best friend to one of us. They think they have easy game because we do not get on that good.
But then they are in for a bad suprise , because even if we do not get along, in times of need we back up each other to the bitter end.And nothing can come between us.

To say we do not get along is a wrong statement, WE have nothing in common.

The mistake is people expect us to be the same because we are Family. But they forget we were all born independent of each other

It all depend on the woman at home, she need to work out interesting things that will make the man always willing to come home, and always willing to reveal and do business with her. On the other hand, the man should learn how to appreciate the woman ideas and contributions at home.

Same goes for the reverse, i.e the man at home and the woman at her work. Tongue
