I Know Some People, They Would Die For Me; We Run Together, They're My Family.

Appreciating good households on the International Day of Families.

Namaste.

Family probably has the most important influence on anyone's life from the first encounter with the world and first emotions to unconsciously forming one’s own attitude and views. Since birth, our family influences our world view and guides us towards rational decision making, playing a big role in our development well into early adulthood.

Family are the people who not only love you, they also respect you and truly care about your wellbeing and your life. They are there through thick and thin and they may not always agree with the way you live your life but they respect you and don’t judge your decisions.

Each one of us has different family dynamics, and we each have our own story to tell regarding its role in our lives. But what is it about family that makes it so valuable to us?

Love, equally necessary for social and emotional development of everyone, is received in the family through positive interactions. That love and nurture is an important prerequisite for healthier relationships later in life. It provides protection enabling an individual to feel protected and free to fulfil their potential. It also offers some of the most valuable notions about life and the first role models, education and socialization, as it instills essential and lasting values.

Besides, many cases worldwide indicate that most people commit suicide due to the fear of being left out by the family—the fear of depression, loneliness, and rejection harm the human mind. Also, the research says that good family dynamics will significantly impact a person’s health.

It is a common occurrence that people talk about toxic or abusive relationship but it's even worse when it's with your family members, because they're the ones who are supposed to protect and love you. If left unaddressed, a high-level devastation that will follow the victim for the rest of their life.

Its never easy to cut someone out of your life. And when it comes to family, its especially hard to accept that a family member is creating so much stress, anxiety, and pain that you can't continue to have a relationship with them. It's okay to walk away from that sort of relationships, considering our mental health.

Every living being in this world is our family when we see it through our heart. So, be humane to all kinds of creatures in this earth and spread humanity, which is essential at this time.

“Blood doesn’t make family, love does.”

Family isn’t always blood. It’s the people in your life who want you in theirs, the ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who would do anything to see you smile and who love you no matter what. So be thankful for what you have.

Family is calling, I must go!
