Family Ties

I think nowadays almost a lot of us don't appreciate family ties anymore.
How many dinners do we eat together as a family? How often is Sunday regarded as "Family Day"? We take our family for granted, because we live with them, we get to see them every day. I think family ties are as important as maintaining social life.

The purpose of a Family Day is to bond families together. Meaning to spend time interacting with each other, be it a simple outing, it's still time spent together.

Ironically, nowadays, people simply can't wait to leave their homes, away from their family members. Even if they do stay at home, they are instead interacting with inanimate objects, namely the computer or the TV. They find happiness and value in spending time outside with friends. Such circumstances varies, but i still think maintaining family ties is as important.

Family is always there for you, whether you are ugly, penny-less or disabled. Family is there to share the joy as well. Family grows together. That's what family is about.
