I feel compel to write this. This entry from Kellaz really touch me. I don’t really know Kellaz as it’s unfair to judge him based on his postings in his blog. What I know is that he has problem with his family. As I am typing this, I don’t know why this matters to me. I think its because that Kellaz said his family is falling apart. I’m sorry Kellaz as I am not really discussing your problem here in my blog but my point is about family institution.
I know mine is not that great but I know I have a great family (12 siblings, in-laws, nieces, nephews, uncles…). I just had a great weekend yesterday with my big family, its just us, siblings and in-laws and some nieces and nephews, celebrating Mothers’ Day (not just one mother). Looking at the pictures I took yesterday really make me feel good.
Family is an important unit within a society and if a family is not functional a society may collapse. I know not one family is perfect, we all do have some flaws here and there but I think it’s important to fix problems sooner than later, before its bigger. If we all stand united, we would be stronger and who would be the best to help you with? Your own family of course. As the Malay saying goes: Air ditetak tidak akan putus or blood is thicker than water.
