Family

                 Parents play a vital role in our life. They have taken care of us right from the moment we were in the womb. They loved us so much that they were willing to undergo any amount of pain and suffering so as to see us grow happily. All our dads like Superman have slogged hard at their various work fields and have been good breadwinners for the family.

                On the other hand our moms like Cat woman have been protecting us from all kinds of evil and vices. They have helped our growth process and have always been there by our side both in good and in bad times. Our parents are the springboard through whom we reach God. Most of our knowledge about God comes from our practical experience with our parents.

                When we are small we love and listen to our parents. We do as they ask; their smallest wish becomes a command for us. However as we grow, we start disagreeing with our parents, we begin to disobey, back answer and also disrespect them. We feel suppressed by what our parents say and feel that our private space is being violated. The result is that there is disharmony, disunity and disturbance in the family.

                However as we grow further on in years, we realize that what our parents did at that moment in time was correct. Most of our family problems and breakdown occur due to the communication gap in the family. In some families communication itself doesn’t exist and hence all problems begin.

                We need to get back to the basics of family life like going together for a family dinner, outing or even a simple heart to heart dialogue. Speaking and letting out emotions in a way helps the person himself/ herself and also communicates what a person is going through.
