What Is A Family

A family is a home within the heart.
It's the place where love starts
and never ends; it's the place
where happiness begins.

A family is a blend of people
and personalities who share a
common path on their travels through this world.
Under one roof and enfolded witin one wonderful feeling,
a family brings together
a million memories of yesterday
and a dream that distant tomorrows
will keep them close,
no matter what.

A family is acceptance.
A family is trust.
A family is understanding when no one else is.
A family is perseverance and deep personal pride.
Nothing can compare to the bond they share,
to the history they hold within,
or the way their lives are interwoven with every smile,
every tear and
every meaningful moment in the years they spend together.
Other things may come and go, but a family will never be apart.

A family is a home....warm within the heart.
