I always wonder why many teenagers around my age like to celebrate BIG EVENTS such as their birthday, new year, Christmas and many more with their friends instead of their parents and family members.
I am close to my family and I celebrate these events with them and I do not have any complains what so ever. I feel very content celebrating these events with them and if I don’t celebrate it with them, i will feel terrible.
Some of you will say celebrating with friends are funner and better because they know how to rock and make life wonderful and interesting. But to me it’s not as meaningful as celebrating it with my family because I feel lucky to have a family and I really appreciate them. I have friends and i appreciate them too but I can always find friends and all i need is just to be friendly and I’ll get tons of them just in one night. But not for family members. They are like oxygen. You don’t feel their presence and instead we like to do things the opposite way like smoking. But when there is no oxygen, we will suffocate and die. Before we die, we realized that we need oxygen to survive but there are not many second chances in life. We take family members for granted.
I try not to take my family members for granted. When i need help, I will first ask my parents for help then only my friends and usually they are the one who gives the best advice because they ate more salt than we eat rice in our life as in they are more experienced people.
Some of you will say that I am close to my family that is why it’s easy for me to tell them my problems. Actually you are wrong. I was once not close to them but still i asked for their help and they helped me of course. It takes two clap so maybe you should be the one who should change and make a difference.
