I have never felt strong family ties before, apart from my mum.
From young, i have always been alone, without any brothers and sisters. I have even prayed to God ( more
than one God at the same time where i was still a little boy O.o ) for me to be given a sibling, so that i will not be alone.
After more than 20 years, my wish has been fulfilled! Not only i have a wonderful life partner, i have found a family!
It did not matter how tired we are. It did not matter how much difficulties we faced. I have this strange but wonderful feeling that this bond will never break, that we will not forsake each other.
When one is not doing well, no one looks down on him/her. Instead, the entire family lifted him/her up with encouragements and helping hands.
When one cries, no one fleds the ground. Instead, we help him/her to dry his/her tears and wipe our own off at the same time.
When one gets complimented or praised, no one feels more superior than others. Instead, credits are quickly shared and pushed to other members of the family, as he/she understands that the battle is won together, not as an individual.
No one takes things for granted, but appreciates all the help that he/she is getting from the rest and shows immense gratitude.
Loving each and every single one of you.
