We need to embrace more of what we have, the people we are with,the different things that we are blessed with. If we give it a thought, all of us are grateful and privileged to have an amazing family. If we are staying in a joint family, there is the next level of enjoyment and fun as we love the togetherness between cousins and elders. It is awesome living around so many people.

There is so much to do and talk about with each member of the family. The bond with each one is strong and pure and that is one prime reason which keeps family together. The generation that grandparents are from and the era that they have seen cannot be compared to today’s time. The transition till date is vast, that at times how they have accepted the changes is applauding. The love and care that we get from them cannot be measured. In spite of the years gone by, we are always going to be their favorite and pampered like children. We should be thankful to them as they shower blessings and forgiveness in each step of our lives, on any mistake of ours.

The most we can do is to make them happy and not give them reason to complain for not being able to spend time and give attention to them. There are situations when the wavelength and thinking does not match between generations, and the reasoning is never understood by elders even if it is tried hard and at time there is communication gap. This can be removed when both sides compromise, adjust and are flexible. The conversation and the talk taken in positively is the best option.

But, all in all, being in a family that supports and encourages is wonderful. There are many decisions which have to be asked for, which everyone might not approve of, but with it comes various approaches on different matters and also the perks of staying with each other. There are many ideas which we believe in, as we evolve with changing times, the concepts which alter previous rules as we revolutionize and make changes as we grow.
