Life is nothing unless you have someone close by. Every human being needs someone to stand with them. And that is the time, when people thinks of having a family. A family is one that always stand with each other. A family gives us support , stands with you and more importantly it gives us immense source of happiness.
I never understood my family, untill I started living in my ancesestrol root place my native village. Once I reached here then only I realised, how big our family are and how important a family can be for a person.
It is not that I am not a family man., buy till I was in city my family only comprises of my own family and brother family. The cities thought of selfishness and meanless never allowed me to think beyond it. As I spent my most part of life in city I remain untouched with the intrinsic core value of a joint family. While I was in city, my family was a kind of 4X4 room, which is limited with very few people. But in real our family is big as a farming field. We have big joint family to support in village, which consists of more than 50 odd people including kids.
Being the youngest in my family, I always seen my self surrounded by few people in city. I rarely used to visit my native place which was not enough to understand each other. But once you put your foot on the root, then you can see how bigger ot could be. A big family is always supportive and cooperative. Our family is so big, that ot is hard to put them in one frame. And when they assemble on dome ocassion, then it was like a self made colony society of people. With everyone enjoying and sharing life with each other.
Everyone get their share of pie kids get their own space, adults their own, the young one their own share laugh and ladies their own gossiping. While the older people have all the happiness seeing e eryone together. It was a big piece of land always lively and good for living.
There is a unique thing in our joint family. Apart from the speciL ocassion, once in a day we happen to discuss all important matters with elders at home. They always stand to support and suggest some good way out with their ample amount of experience with all kind of difficulty. It really makes life so meaningful.
The benefit of joint family can only be understand, once you get and gel with them. Now my family is so bigger, that I find myself in middle of crowd. We live together, we enjoy together and also we make things simpler for everyone. Everyone have their share of work and role but they always ready to cooperate with each other. Never hesitate to run away, or part away in case of difficulty. They make slide so beautuful and enjoyable.
It is like unity is strength. While I was in city, I used to find myself in middle of a huge crowd with many unknown faces. But once I came to my family root pace, I am finding myself again in middle of crowd, but this time the crowd is people of known faces and names. I become, brother, nephew, uncle, father in law, grandfather, and many other relation in one go. I am not alone anyone, and more importantly not scares of the huge crowd that surrounds me.
