Perhe aka The Support System

Perhe aka The support system. 

So when I decided to actually begin this new venture of my life, I thought what better choice would it be than to start off with the very reason for my existence today which is my family. If I am to tell an overall gist of my story, there will only be one factor which remains common in every chapter and that is my family. Of course the roles played often differed from being the ultimate source of strength to the major cause of problems but at the end of the day, when I look back they were the only ones which remained real and true to me, bonded with love, care and support throughout my journey till now. If ever one day god appears in front of me, after I’m done freaking out, I’m sure that I’ll be definitely thanking him for entitling me with such a great blessing of my life. Now after so much praising talks about my family, I don’t want to bore anyone with the whole drama kind of words but I would rather like to ask or more precisely request you all to look back at your own life and imagine what it would have been or how it would have been for you if you didn’t have the same family you cursed yesterday with you today. I know for some still it would be complicated. I mean even I have passed through a phase in which I had a lot of problems to be dealt with my family but I had my reasons as of why it happened and so would you. Each of us are extremely different and thereby the things which we get to experience will differ too. But the best part of it is to understand and make the most out of it. So basically what I’m trying to convey is that no matter how much we argue or fight or tease or whatever it is, we only get to do all that in a particular manner only and only with our family. I mean if you had a bad day, you can’t just go and release your entire anger on a random person on the street or to your friend for that matter for if it’s a stranger you might get to experience a lot of pain from it, if you know what I mean and if it’s a friend you’ll easily get judged but imagine the same case if it’s your mom. Yes , I am talking from my own personal experience I used to take out all my frustrations on my mom,be it anger or sadness, of course I’ll regret it very badly later and I’ll go and hug her and tell her sorry. She’ll hug back even tighter or give a small kiss saying ‘ I understood, it’s okay, don’t worry things are going to be fine’, that’s how her reaction would be, most of the times. Even though she might get hurt at times, she’ll never take it to her heart or keep it for vengeance later for she knows us better than anyone in the world, within seconds she’ll be able to understand that we’re disturbed. That’s how a mother is. The light of the family she is. The heart and soul too. Everything actually. I was brought up in a joined family in which a lot of values were given so much significance. From the smallest of giving respect to elders and the society, behaving properly, sharing and giving care to the others , treating everyone equally, being kind and lovable were all given priority but at the same time we were taught or we were given the freedom of living our own dream , chasing our happiness, filling our own hearts , fulfilling the desires and living our life just the way we want cause having fun is also an integral part of our life and it should be given the importance it deserves. We were taught to make sure that there is always a clear balance maintained between the both sides. To sum up, it’s always the best to give considerance and care for the ones in our circle and live our life the way we like for people are gonna us judge anyway. And these are the few things in my life which I still give extreme value. Every family works differently and has it’s own unique path or method it follows. I’m just glad that mine happens to be the way it is. I do believe that no matter how much depressing or worse my life gets, I’ll always be having my support system to charge me up and help me face the challenging world with even more confidence. And they will always be mine and the reason for my success and happiness in life. 

Ps: Perhe is a word in Finnish which means family, I've always been a hardcore fan of the Finnish language which I wonder why but still it's such a cute and interesting word isn't it?
