To be a real man a son has to learn to be responsible towards his own family, knowing that they have to protect the family when dad's not around. It's also the same for daughters, they have to bear their mom's responsibility when the mom's not around. That's how family works. Everyone has their own parts, their own responsibilities. And every member has to do their responsibilities so the family can live harmoniously.
When I say harmonious, I don't mean that they will live in peace without any fight. Everyone is different, every member in a family will have different opinions, different tastes. But love is the one thing that makes them one. Love made mom and dad decided to live together for the rest of their lives. Since I never fall in love with someone so deep (mostly just a slight crush that lasts about 5 years? :P), I always think that our family's love is the only real love I ever experience (beside God's love).
Parents' love towards their children is the most beautiful love in the world. They accept their children although sometimes they're hurt because their children's actions. But hey, they're still new in raising kids too~! We humans are not perfect. Both the children and parents are learning.
The beautiful thing of a family is no matter bad things you have done (well, maybe except husband-wife relation) they always forgiving. There's no ex-child, ex-father/ex-mother. Only ex-wife/ex-husband.
In 2013 I learned that unity is important. Is not about only doing our own responsibilities as a member of a family, but also to forgive and help each other. Honestly I think my relationship with my brother is a little bit better than before now. And in 2014 I hope I can really enjoy everything happens to our family, maybe sometimes I can't stand certain member in the family, but deep inside I know that I will always care about them. And that's why I think..ah..that's love.
