Secret War Journal[19 May 2011]
Ingredients in heaps of quantity:
Allow a comfort room of privacy for growth and happiness. Set in the concoction of love in a basketful of care and concern and soaked in a basin of Mindfulness. Pour in a big bucket of respect for every person and serve each and everyone with ten jugs of humor and a barrel of laughter. Complete the portion with a hallway of playfulness,physical exercises and fun.
That is my ideal recipe for a happy family life. It all begins with love and when we have love for one another, failure is not an option.
Being mindful of one another and respecting each other is also the foundation of a happy family life. When we have care and concern and lots of laughter, family members can have their boost of positive energy for themselves and then they are encouraged to help themselves and to help others.
We have to be happy ourselves and only then we can encourage and support our loved ones. There will be times when there are challenges or issues and this is when the family plays an important role in being available and understanding for the family member. It is this support that the family member knows that they have in times of difficulty and this knowledge will help them go through the issue with confidence and growth.
Positive words are used to encourage one another and also allow each other to have space to grow. Respect for the young and old is truly important as one's self-esteem is linked with the respect one gets from the family.
Happy moments are created when there is fun time and playfulness. These happy moments will serve as an inspiration to each member of the family. Negativity should be trashed out and support is needed by each family member to help the one who needs words of encouragement, a pat on the back.
Acts of service and kind words are basic ingredients for a happy family life. We all want to be encouraged, to be understood and hence we all should encourage and seek to understand our family members.
Our lives are make up of moments shared with family members and friends. Let us always remember to appreciate our family members the way we do so for our friends, acquaintances and relatives. Gratitude is when we are so happy to have our loved ones in our lives and making us feel special and wanted.
For us to want the secret recipe for a happy family life, let us all cover ourselves with a blanket of love for ourselves and our loved ones. If we only have one ingredient, let that ingredient be love and that is the recipe for a happy family life. For us to have love, let us first love ourselves and then love our loved ones. The choice is ours to make and the recipe for a happy family life can be our legacy we leave with our loved ones.
