My
Family
My
family is like the typical Latin families who always live together in a home.
The kids leave home when they become adults or even until they get marry. They
are an essential part of my life. I am thankful to them because of them I
exist. I consider them more than just people related to me. We always have
people that support us on what we go through but it is not like theirs. They
have taught me what respect and love are.
One
day, my mom told me that I might have many friends in life but just only one
family. Friends come and go but my family will always be there for me in good
and bad times. My parents are always supporting me on what we do, and they give
me advices on what I am doing wrong or right. Sometimes, I felt that they get
too much into my things, but at the end, I just realized that they do it
because they care about me.
My
mom is the most important person in my family. I saw how much she cares for us.
She raised my brothers and me just by herself. I remember she told us that what
ever problem or differences should not drive us apart because we were brothers.
She always wants to have our family together. She taught me to share my things
with my brothers as they did with me.
Sometimes,
I want to move out but I just felt that without them, a family, I am nothing.
They are the reason the way I am. When I got into college, my parents always
supported me continue my education. They always tell me how proud I make them. They
are the persons that I look up to and also my motivation to keep pursuing my
goal of a better life. In one way or other, they have showed me how much they
care about me and what I do. I know that my relationship with each member of my
family is different and sometime not good enough. But at the end they are the
ones who will always be there supporting me on what I am up to. I consider my
self lucky to have all my family together. I think that if I had the chance to
choose a family, I would choose them again. My family is what makes me who I am
today.
Your blessed with a nice mother who teaches the importance of family time. It's rare to see family get together now a days.
ReplyDeleteMy mom also told me something similar to that.(first line 2nd paragraph) I never took her seriously until I started to realize who my true friends were after high school.
ReplyDeleteI agree it is hard to keep family together in todays generation.
ReplyDeleteSounds like your mom is a very devoted mother! I think its great you realize how lucky you are to have her and the rest of your family close to you!
ReplyDeletei think its true what your mom told you there is no real friends and your family will always be there for you
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way! Sometimes I just want to move out, but I Know it would be difficult without them.
ReplyDeleteI am so afraid of moving out because i finally realized how much my family actually does for me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing! I do hope you meet some friends that will become like family too. I am fortunate to have many.
ReplyDeleteI am the same way! I want to move out, until I realize how dependent i am on my family and it scares me.
