extended family
All about how to stay connected, strengthen ties and talk politics with your big, happy extended family.
too late....or just in time?
The family consisted of a husband, a wife, and three children—two sons and a daughter in the middle. To anyone looking from the outside, they seemed like an ordinary family, living an ordinary life. The children went to school, the father worked long hours, and the mother devoted herself to caring for the household. Their days followed a familiar rhythm, much like countless other families.

Manifestations of Abandonment
I have always been a curator of stray pets. From the wee age of six, I kept bringing home every abandoned, lonely creature I found. Call it a compassionate heart, a love for animals, too, maybe. I think it was a symptom of what abandonment does to a person. You rescue what you identify with because you can’t stand for anything to feel as you have. So I brought home lonely creatures in need of love. Maybe I was rescuing myself from loneliness and despair.

5 Habits To Build Permanent Happiness Into Your Life, By A Psychologist
Most people think of happiness as a feeling: something that arrives when conditions are right and fades when they’re not. But the last decade of psychological science tells a different story. Happiness isn’t primarily a mood state. It’s an output that emerges from the way your life is structured, the choices you make consistently and the environment you inhabit.

A family story
A woman in her forties stood in front of the hospital entrance, surrounded by her six children. She clutched files, papers, X-rays, and lab results, gazing at them in stunned silence. The world seemed to be breaking with pain. What had happened? The doctors had confirmed she had cancer. Did this mean she was going to die? She looked around but couldn't find her husband, the one who should have been her support. She gathered her children and went home. She waited for him, but he didn't return. Day after day, she lived in anxiety, fearing the unknown. After a whole month, he called her. "You are divorced. I owe you nothing," he said, and left. What she had feared had come to pass: he showed no reaction, no sympathy, when the doctors told her the truth about her illness.

between hunger and dignity A wido's journey to safty
senses and emotions She had lost her husband, the pillar of her life. She had five children. They lived a simple life, but one filled with love, cooperation, and tenderness. She returned from her husband’s funeral, dragging her feet, which were too weak to carry her. Her eyes were unfocused, her thoughts scattered. The funeral rites ended, and she made her way home, accompanied by a few of the and mourners who spent a short time with her, consoling her in her grief. The mourners left and closed the door behind them, and she looked around at her children, overcome with sorrow and exhaustion. Some people brought her some food for the children; naturally, she was not in a state to prepare food herself, as is customary in those regions. But when she looked at tried to sleep, she found her husband’s bed empty. It was then that she realized the pain and sorrow would accompany her forever
