It’s great to be with friends over the weekend. I’m lucky because our board meeting this afternoon was re-scheduled next week. Saturday and Sunday is my time for my family to have a quality time for them. “No other success can compensate for failure in the home.” Because for me family is so central to attaining happiness. The family is the foundation of society. Human beings are made for each other, and the best in each person can only come out if he or she is in contact with someone else. And there is no greater relationship than the kind I maintain with my family. Sometimes I ask myself why spend more time in other endeavors such as work when in the end, only family and my relationship with them will remain. This is the beauty of having family. Amids the concerns and pressures of life, in a sea of uncertainty, chaos, and concern, there is someone, somebody you can run to. I know that I’m welcome and loved. Having a family is like having a refuge from the storm, a boat in the midst of the wild sea. These days, there are so many challenges to the family. More and more people prioritize material wants and needs over stating a family. and mass media also encourage a more materialistic views, with barrage of advertisement that make unessential products look more like necessities than what they really are- luxuries. Prioritizing the more important things in life means putting my family first.
