A Family's Support

There have been times in my life where I thought I was alone and I longed for people to support me and give me words of encouragement. Has anyone else ever felt the same? As I felt like this, my family was around men giving me the love and support that I needed. I realized how lucky I am to have a family that loves and cares for me so much and would do anything for me. It doesn't matter what I did wrong because they will always support me and figure out a way to help me through any situation.

As I was writing my next story, this was exactly what I thought about. I remembered all of the times that my family supported me and wanted to capture that support in a story. Here is the link: A Family's Support. My stories are basically a fictional diary of my life. I make up characters that express who I am. Try to take a guess at what character you think is me?

Picture Perfect Family

What does a perfect family look like? Can we simply define what a perfect family should look like for every person on Earth? I have always thought of the perfect family to be a loving and supporting family, who always had each other's back. No matter what you were going through, your family would always be there for you. When you are having a hard time, your family would an ear to listen and a shoulder to lean on. And when you are going through an exciting experience, your family is there to enjoy the experience with you.

This idea of the perfect family is what I have experienced personally. I have always been blessed to have a family that has supported me through thick and thin. We have had our ups and downs, but we have always supported each other.

Here is a story that I have written about a Picture Perfect Family.

Picture Perfect Daughter

 Have you ever wondered how you can be the perfect daughter to your parents? In order to have the best relathionship with your parents, what kind of behavior do you think that you should have? Can you really be perfect little angels towards your mother and father all the time and not have any flaws? Is this even possible? If not, what would it take to be the perfect daughter that your parents would want you to be?

I have thought of this often. And I think it comes down to two conditons to follow. First, you must follow the fifth commandment and honor your father and mother. If we respect our parents and value their opinions and insight, they will most likely being able to respect and honor you more easily. And second, follow your heart. Do what you know in your heart is the right thing to do. If you are happy and you generate a positive attitude, that energy will grow and multiply into your family and they will project happiness in return. Sometimes, I gets difficult when obstacles block your path in life and you want to take it out on people that you love. But just remember that your parents are always around to help you through every situation and they want you to talk it out with them.

I am am my parents only daughter and although I have gotten mad at them a few times, I have always shown respect and honor towards them. This has always helped us to be on good terms and have a loving and caring relationship. This to me is the best example of a picture perfect daughter.
