All runs in the family

As we prepare for Christmas let us all put down a to do list of "Things to do". As you meticulously pen down details of Christmas sweets, Decorations, Christmas shopping, Gifts... let us not forget the most important "Thing to do". The thing that we celebrate Christmas for. The Family!
Christmas is not only about the birth of our Saviour, but it also signifies the birth of the important institution, the family. Most of us have been blessed with this gift. While some of us have strayed away from it, others have either lost it in part or whole. What we call family goes way beyond just our parents, siblings and children. It goes into a space where we feel "at home". The people that fill that home, could range from friends or even just that loved one. The love for family can never be measured by that party you throw for a gathering or gifts that you buy for them. It is by the love that you shower them with. It is by that strong bond or connection that you have with these people.
This Christmas, let us strive to make a strong connect with our own families. Bury grudges, accept limitations and strengthen the bond. Jesus had his, and has blessed us with our own. Let us show them that you care.
