Family

Sometimes family can aggravate you. Your parents can punish you for reacting to what your younger sibling did to you. Your younger sibling might nag at you constantly trying to get a reaction out of you. Parents can tell you what to do and what not to do, it might be annoying. Your older sibling can boss you around, your not a baby.

You might realize that your parents punished you to reacting to what your sibling did to you, hoping that you might think twice before doing it the next time.  You might realize you parents are telling you what to do and not what to do because what you want to do is dangerous. You might realize your sibling is only expressing their love for you in a annoying way. You might realize that you older sibling is only bossing you around because they feel their duty is to protect you.

 Family might annoy you at times. Family might make you angry. Family also lifts you up when your falling. Family also gives you hugs on the days of downs. Family also is there when you need advice. Family is there to help you when someone is being nasty to you at school.


 Some people may be thinking, "I have no family."

 It's not true.

 If you don't have a physical family, you have a spiritual one. The Church is a body of Believers, or a body of brothers and sisters who are there to help each other. The Church is where you're filled up with wisdom. It is where people give you hugs and make you feel loved.

And your Father whom is in Heaven loves you more than anything. He adores you and protects you when you ask for protection. He makes you smile when your going through the hardest thing you have ever had to go through. He's there to remind you that you are perfect the way you are when others say differently. You may not have a father on this earth, but you have one in Heaven who watches you every second of every day. He is your Family.
