Few months ago, I am in great pain because of some family misunderstanding. It is really painful that I can't write anymore. All I do is to pray to God for my brother's enlightenment. I know He always listens. I also pray that my little hope in my heart be the reason to still love my bother after all he had been said and done. And God is so good. He hears my prayers. He just make a circumstance that makes our family whole again. I must admit that circumstance is something not good but it yielded a positive effect. This leads us to reconciliation and that makes me truly happy. It happened just before New Year so for the first time after so many years, my whole family celebrates and welcome the New Year together. This is a great way to start 2013 and that after all, a family will always be a family. I wish everyone here a more fruitful and blessed New Year, though it's a little late. Thank you for all the kind words you have given me during those dark days. I appreciate those much.

As your title goes, family will always be family. No matter what happens, at the end of the day, the people who truly care for us and loved us are our dearly beloved family. I am happy to what happened to you and your family. I agree with you that sometimes, pain is inevitable so it can yield a positive effect in our lives - much more our families. I believe that God is truly good all the time. I had just received an answer to my prayer. May you continue to love and in return be loved. Good day.

Yes, family will never leave when worst comes to worst. We can hurt them but still they will stay by our sides. I am really thankful that my brother finally realized that. Thank you for the response.

Yes that is true a family will always be a family. We cannot replace them. It is natural for some to have misunderstandings at times with some of family members. They can resolved in time. Our families are given by God, we cannot choose a family so we really just have to love our families. God Bless

I know it is just natural. But I never used to it. I am a person who loves peace and peace of mind. Those are priceless. And I can't contain my happiness when finally everything is okay between me and my brother. Most especially when he realize he is not getting anywhere with the life he is having right now. Thank you for the response.
