Family Matters

Sunday emits in me a feeling of gratefulness.

Not to sound too cheesy or emotional, but I truly feel blessed for having such a wonderful family. No family is perfect but despite the flaws, at the end of the day, you know in your heart that your family is the best one who can understand you. 

They accept you wholeheartedly for whoever you are: past, present and future.
They are there to provide a crying shoulder and a helping hand.
They are there to laugh with you about the silliest things and to brood with you over life-changing decisions. 

Though a family may have a different structure for each person...

Biological family: Mom, Dad, Siblings; Extended: Lola, Lolo, Tita, Tito; Stepfamily; Stepmom, Stepdad, Stepsiblings; Adopted: Foster parents and siblings; Acquired: Barkada, Church community, Club, Organization

But all of them is family just the same in that a Family is Sanctuary where acceptance is inevitable and safety is certain. 


Be grateful for the family/families you have. Show them love the best way you can.

Have a blessed Sunday with your Family. :)
