FAMILY-
1. "Family is one of those things you sometimes wish you didn't have but really couldn't live without." I don’t think this is a true quote for me. I never wish I didn’t have a family. Do you know how horrible that would be? I have had nightmares like that. I love being with family… I would choose spending time with them over anyone else.
2. I don't care how poor a man is; if he has family, he's rich. Well, but family only goes so far. If you don’t have God, then your family will not satisfy you.
3. "The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together." How true for me! ~Elizabeth (Luvs2Sing)
4. “The family is the corner stone of our society. More than any other force it shapes the attitude, the hopes, the ambitions, and the values of the child. And when the family collapses it is the children that are usually damaged. When it happens on a massive scale the community itself is crippled. So, unless we work to strengthen the family, to create conditions under which most parents will stay together, all the rest — schools, playgrounds, and public assistance, and private concern — will never be enough.”
Lyndon Baines Johnson
Of course I would like to add that the answer to creating such a strong family is having a solid foundation of faith in God. This quote hits hard in today’s society. Linds (hopeandafuture)
