“Our Shield"

       Let’s start this from a question what is a “FAMILY”? Family is a group of parents and children or near relatives; all descendants of a common ancestor. We can differentiate family in many ways. We have our own opinion about it, but my question is “What is the importance or benefits we can get in having a family at this time”? Even tough as Filipino we know that our economic status slowly decreases and as a result every family that didn’t have an enough income will come into a shortage.

        Every day as a student I go to school and at there you can see that only few people are thinking of what future they want to have. Many student’s have their early pregnancy because they didn’t stop for a while to think what would be the result of their actions. It only means that they didn’t have the importance of having a family. Because as a parent you should consider the life that your child will experience, you must also secure your child a good future. Many situations like this are now happening in our community today. They only seek for their selves but in the end their parents will suffer too, and after what they have done they will realize that they were not yet ready to be parents. The first thing will come up to their mind is to abort the child which is really wrong in terms of the law here on earth and also the law on heaven. But other’s keep on giving birth for the child. And there is another case on it. The woman will bear her child as a “SINGLE PARENT” and it is so hard for her to lift the child because she will not have enough time to give an attention to her child. And as a result, when that child grew up she will look for a grand comfort and its tendency is to be rebellious.

          Science has a big contribution in a family, because they invented medicine that will heal hurts and disease for our love ones to extend their lives. They also study about the behavior of an individual. They help people who are emotionally problematic especially with their family and that is called Psychological Therapy. They help one’s mind to refresh and to relax it.

        That’s why family has a big role in every one of us. Family is the one who supports you unto the fight and comforts you although you didn’t win. Family will give you an “unconditional love” that others cannot give to you. When you’re down, your family is the one who lifted you up and guide you until you stand up. Family is the one who pushes us to our wonderful dreams. Having a family is a sacrifice because you will be the one who responsible about the sake of your children. But it will replace a happy experience when you train up your child in a way the both of you will have a benefit. Family is so important for us a human being. Look at the animals they care for their own family they didn’t let anyone harm their love one’s, they didn’t think what will happen if they fought their enemies. To care for their love is the only thing they wanted, let us be like them, and let us inspire to blame our hearts with desire to love our family or our special one’s. I know it is hard for a person to say that you care and love them, but as they say “actions are better than words” let us act that we love and care for them although we didn’t say it directly to them. Because for me I experience life to the fullest when my parents and relatives are beside me, and do not let your pride stand up, conquer it with the love that your family is giving to you. Do not let also difficulties strand before you. Poverty, broken family is not an excuse in having a good, happy, responsible and loving family all of our burdens and hurts will come up into an end when we know how to give back the love of our family. Let us give an importance to our family, simply because it is so hard to find and it is the only treasure we will keep until the end of our LIFE...
