Never Let You Down

          A family unit is the unit which builds up a person’s personality. How you behave and what you become in life is very much dependent on your family life. Psychologists believe that a child learns the most from his or her family life. The way your family members deal with you has a lifelong effect on your personality. Keeping in view all these facts the importance of your family life cannot be denied. Family unit happens to be the most important part of your life till you grow up. The children are usually closer to their parents and their siblings as compared to any other person in the world. As the children grow up they find good friends, spouses, their own kids and colleagues to share their lives with. Although time brings this change but the importance of family remains there. The children who have a sound family background and who belong to a family with strong family ties are almost always happier. Thus one cannot deny the importance of family life.

            
       The life with your family is very important it plays a major role in your development into the person you become. The goals you set for yourself in your life are very much dependent on the life you have with your family. Those children who belong to the families which have a rich education background tend to learn more. They are interested in learning more and thus it is easy for their parents to get them educated. Similarly, for example, children who belong to a family from which a few of the people are in the field of professional sports, the kids tend to have an interest in sports and they also plan to go into the same field. The sons and daughters of stars from the film industries usually plan to follow the suit of their parents. Thus it is the effect of your family life which guides you to decide what profession you want to do as an adult.

            Family life is also important in the sense that it gives you your basic strength as a person. The people who have a smooth and well settled family life are generally less scared of life. Those who are a part of a broken family are generally less confident. These people always expect the worst in life. This is a general state of mind which results in building up of a negative personality. Family life is also important to people as it is the part of our life which has more effect on us compared to any other part of our life. The way a mother treats her kids is actually the deciding factor of what those kids will be like as human beings when they grow up.

            As important as family life is, it is a big problem in the world of today where the family units are breaking up more often and the divorce rates have grown very high. The higher divorce rates result in more broken families that in turn lead to a lot more number of children who suffer through this insecurity in their early ages and as a result they are not that stable. These people tend to have a variety of fears and insecurity. They do not have the courage to face their life. As family life plays a very important role in shaping you as a person, lack of security in your family life makes you a bit unstable as a person.

            
           In today’s world a big social problem is that the family unit is not being considered as important by the people as it used to be. In many parts of the world the time period for which people live together as a family is shrinking. The family life adds a sense of responsibility in your personality which lacks in those people who have not had a very nice family life.

            
          Every person longs to have the kind of a family that is the ideal for him. When we talk of an ideal family, it means that it is the family that a person views to be perfect. Even in a person’s early years in life, admiration of different families starts and thus making one dream of having a family someday that is picture perfect for him. Although there are different forms of family that are being accepted and acknowledged, the choice still depends upon one's perspective. What kind of family then should a person have? This type of family re-assures each other and provides emotional stability among each other. They often times put into action how they feel by demonstrating to each other, their warm welcome, love and admiration for each other. Unconditional love and affection are constant in success or failure. They believe so much in family coming together to help lift each other up and support each other in whatever way necessary. They don't discourage, let down or connect with each other in order to create a better outcome, expressions of love and affection.

            
        For me, the kind of family that I have now is enough, the loving parents and thoughtful siblings. They comfort me whenever I’m sad. And mostly, they make me feel that I am important to them. I’ll always love my family. ♥

The Superhero of My Life ♥

            What is a father? As defined by the dictionary, it means a man who is acting as a parent. By definition, this recognizes those who are genetic fathers, through bloodline, and those who have stepped into this empowering role. But for me, a dad is someone who wants to catch you before you fall but instead picks you up, brushes you off, and lets you try again. A dad is someone who wants to keep you from making mistakes but instead lets you find your own way, even though his heart breaks in silence when you get hurt. A dad is someone who holds you when you cry, scolds you when you break the rules, shines with pride when you succeed, and has faith in you even when you fail. 

            My father, Cornelio Antioquia Colocado, has always been a friend and a hero for me. Ever since I was born, he had been there at my side through my hardships and success in life. He never failed to give me the care and love I needed. He shows me the difference between what’s right and wrong. Whenever I needed help, he’s always to the rescue. That’s why for me, he is my SUPERHERO.

            Last Sunday, we had just celebrated Father’s Day. It is one of the most important dates in their lives. So, my sister and I thought of a great plan to celebrate it with our father. My father seldom eat sweets like ice cream, it is because he budgets our daily expenses. He prioritizes what we needed the most. So, with our money, we surprised our father buy buying him an ice cream. Our hearts were full of joy when we saw our father smile once again. For me, the most precious gift that we can give to our father is our eternal love and care that no one can ever take nor buy. It doesn’t matter if you can’t buy your father the most popular gadgets, things or clothes. What matters the most is the thought of why we celebrate father’s day. It is to reminisce the sacrifices and hardships, which are father went through in order to get us to what we are now.

             I can sacrifice a lot of things for my father. Just like what he has done for me. I will never ever forget to give my father the love, care and support that he needs. I will always tell him that I love him very much. We should never forget that even if are busy growing up, our parents are also growing old. We should never waste any minute of our time on not telling our father that we love him very much because every time is a good time to say it. We’ll never know if it will be his last.

            (F)irm, (a)lways, (t)ender (h)earted, (e)ndorsing, (r)eform

            Yes, a father is firm, always. But, he is tender hearted, and he is forever endorsing reform. Your father wants you to become your best self. At his core, he wants you to succeed. And, regardless of where you are in your journey, he loves you unconditionally. He is is my friend, my hero but most importantly, he is my father. I LOVE YOU PAPA!

The Start Of Something New

        It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some teenagers feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and maybe even a new school. Luckily, these "new" worries only stick around for a little while.

        

        "Expect the unexpected." It is my quote for this new school year. I expect that I won't get along easily with my new set of classmates but, I was wrong. All of them were kind and they treated me nicely. This is just the start of our friendship and I know that in the end, we all become a family. I also expect that our P.E Class won't be scheduled on Friday. But my expectation led to a different conclusion. I really hate having our P.E Class on Friday because during that day, we wear our GSP uniform so its hard to change clothes.

        

         One year is left till we turn seniors and graduate in High School. No one knows if all of us will graduate in CNSHS. But, I know that we can overcome the challenges that we'll face before we can reach the top. One of the challenges that we need to face is the research. We already have a research to make this school year. I know it's a bit hard,but I know that God is with me and I know it's for our own good. So that when we are already in college, it won't be hard for us to make a research. 
         
         New school year means, new room, new schoolmates, new subjects and topics, new teachers and new experiences that I can share with each and everyone.
