7 Secrets Of A Happy Family (Part 3)

-


5. ATTENTION: It is not enough to be at home with your family. Everybody needs attention. This is because you can be at home and yet not be at home. So it is very important for parents to give attention to their children and spouses should also give attention to their partners. When you take out time to discuss with your family, it gives them a sense of belonging. Let your family feel your presence.

6. FORGIVENESS: "To forgive", They say, "Is divine". Forgiveness is a very difficult thing to do especially when you are deeply hurt. But at the same time, it is the medicine for your malady. For any home to be happy and peaceful, forgiveness should be the lifestyle of every member of the family. Where there unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred, pain, violence is a normal way of life. Forgiveness is very important for any family to enjoy peace and happiness. So all members of the family should learn to forgive. If you really want to enjoy a happy family, forgiveness is a must.

7. DON'T NEGLECT YOUR RESPONSIBILITY: A family where there is negligence of duties, there is always chaos and quarreling. The father should realize and carry out his responsibility, so also the mother and children. When the mother does the duties of the children and father, it stresses her out and vice versa. But when everybody is alive to his responsibility, there is happiness in the family.

Should I Forgive?

A friend betrayed me some years ago. This provoked this question, "Should I forgive him"? This is a question I have heard over and over again. Some people will say, "You don't understand what he did to me". While others will ask questions like, "He raped me when I was a child and shattered my life. Should I still forgive him"? "He killed my parents before my very presence. Should I forgive him"? "She disappointed me and married someone else. Should I forgive her"? "I caught him in bed with my best friend in our matrimonial home. Should I forgive him"? And so on. I have also asked similar question in time past. My answer to this question, “Should I forgive him"? Is "YES"! Bear with me a little. I will explain to you the reason why I said yes. But first of all, what does it mean, to forgive? I am glad you asked that question. To forgive means to overlook a fault or debt. It also means, to be no longer ang...

After examining her, the doctor discovered that her womb was badly affected and the only way to save her life was to remove her womb. When she grew up, she...

Be Hopeful!

"Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is,” Jeremiah . 17:7. To be hopeful, is to be full of hope. It means to be full of positive expectations. A hopeful man can never be frustrated, because he believes that tomorrow will be good. Hope has the ability to help people heal. Individuals, who maintain hope, especially when battling illness, significantly enhance their chances of recovery. G. K. Chesterton said, “There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something better tomorrow.” Yolanda DeLoach wrote, “We can lose important things like jobs, loved ones, pets and health. These loses are devastating and push us to our limits. But we press on and adjust to life. There's one thing, that if lost there is no pressing on. If we lose this, we become broken. Suffering, pain and despair are a part of the human experience. Our faith in God can be questioned or even shattered. We can feel disconn...
