A family is a very crucial and significant aspect in anybody’s’ life. Without a family, one feels a sense of loneliness, which makes life very unhappy. The dictionaries define a family as a particular group or set of people that can consist of partners, parents, children, aunts, cousins, uncles and grandparents. This is your family of relatives, which is essential because this family is where you originated. Incase you are lost or in a bad situation, you can return home and feel comfortable with those who are close to you.
Beside the dictionary and logical definition, it is a group of people with whom, whenever around them, you feel a sense of belonging, acceptance and you feel happy being around those people or that person. These could be your best friend(s) with whom you share your problems, laugh together and do crazy things together. Family is not just about the relatives. As a matter of fact, there are a lot of divisions among the relatives to a point that you can fail to consider them as your family, only that the logical definition describes your relatives as your family.
Once you have that kind of a family, you should never turn back on them.
