Family



Family oriented.
According to (Oxford) the term family means it consists of one of two parents and their children. But the means goes deeper than just that.
 
Family is beyond measure. Something everyone should be grateful of having. There are the people that will never turn their backs on you regardless the differences you might all have. The love they carry is imaginable. I come from a family that values the term family so much.
 
We can argue to the extent of not talking to each other but my parents always tell us that we can never function without one another. So yes you are allowed to be mad but don’t turn your anger to hatred because then we are not a family. When it comes to my family we have created a bond because we never used to be this close until we lost the first born. His death brought up a new birth to the family. And even though it broke our hearts we understand better what it means to be a family.
 
It is not the easiest responsibility to maintain a family but it is a job that each family member should take seriously. Because if effort is not made from each member then we do not get any yielding results that are positive. Family first before anything is our motto. Having a family that has your back at all times it’s truly a blessing. And for that people should always cherish that. It is a beautiful blessing that we should always be grateful for in life.

MUM



My best friend.
You are my best friend within a million miles away. She makes me wear a smile even in my stormy days. I love her to the moon and back. She’s a pillar of strength. A person I look up to each and every day of my life.

Sometimes she annoys me to the maximum and yet in that annoyance, she still finds a way to warm up my heart. A star that shines on me.

I am grateful of her being in my life each and every day. If it was not of her I would not exist on this place we call a world. We get on each other’s necks but still get back together. There are times when we can’t stand each other for more than two weeks. But best believe when we get back together there is a bubble of love that no one can quite understand.

A mother’s love is beyond measure. There is nothing more fulfilling that a mother’s love. They hold the house, they make everything make sense. I don’t know what I would do without her in my life.

It is not easy to lose a mother and for those that did lose their mothers I would lie if I was to say I can relate to how you feel, because I don’t. I cannot begin to imagine the pain you must be going through. But I do know that you hold a special place in your hearts for them.

She is my best friend. I can tell her everything. I must say we did not start off as best friends always thought she preferred my older brothers to me. And it always bothered me how she was close to them instead of me. I mean I am the only girl it made sense that her and I were meant to be super close.
Then I realized that I never made an effort to reach out to her. And the feeling was mutual from her end as well. Two people both feeling vulnerable working together to form an unbreakable bond. She is my world and I can say I’m more than grateful to know how much I mean to her as well. You are the best MUM.

Situations



Views on how to tackle any situation. For instance relationships.
Sometimes we often don’t realize how to handle problems or any situation we face, in the relationships we encounter. People do react the same in any situation they happen to face in the sense that they respond with emotions when they should sit back get all emotional as they can and face the problem with a clear mindset.
 
Responding with emotions tends to make you say things you actually don’t mean, and regret. What we all need to learn is to separate emotions and the mind to yield a better outcome. In Ecclesiastes 10 verse 1 it says ‘‘if a ruler’s anger rises against you, do not leave your post; calmness can lay great errors to rest. This also applies to how one can tackle whatever situation they are in.
 
Calmness makes one achieve so much. No matter how much you feel provoked by a situation. Sometimes walking away does not mean you are weak it just means you know when it to avoid situations that will make you leave your post.

The Meaning Of It.



The meaning of the h.a.t.e u. song by Mariah Carey.
Pain is not the easiest thing to live with. Pretending to be happy when you are in pain is just an example of how strong you are as a person. Pain is part of growing up and it is how we learn.
George Eliot states that pain must enter into its glorified life of memory before it can turn to compassion. Looking at this song it shows how deeply bruised she was. It’s as though he made it so hard for her to believe in love again or better yet to trust someone again.
 
It is always hard to say goodbye to the person you thought was or is the one. Letting go of something you once held so much high regard for tears one apart emotionally mentally and physically.  In the chorus of the song she even say she cannot wait to hate him make him pain like she is. But then again you can never hate someone you really loved.
 
You can be mad at them and not want to see them but hating them is the far from the table. Affairs of the heart are very complicated and if not very careful they can destroy one permanently. People come and go, just as pain comes and goes.
In her song there is a verse she says ‘‘no need to call my phone, I changed my numbers today and matter of fact she thought of moving away, meaning she had decided to let go and deal with her pain, running away from the pain she was going through seemed to be the only thing that will bring sanity to her miserable life. She even apologizes that her frustration towards the situation has her feeling like she has one last thing to say to him.
 
The reason why one gets frustrated is because you would have invested so much. The thought of letting something you worked so hard to build is rather frustrating.

Tell Me



TELL ME BY CHRIS MARTIN
This song has so much depth in it. In the sense that this is a man who is desperate to know the position he is in with the woman of his dream. It’s as though the woman is not clear With her intentions to towards her man. She seems to be making him believe that she is all in but playing him for a fool. He does realize it but is blinded by the love he has for her.
 
There is a part of the song that says’’ cause if you say you love me now and love me right then I am leaving you tonight, am not coming back. My love not coming back you’ve begin playing silly games and sprinkling water on my face. I don’t want to go through this again.’’. Which means he realized she was not all in. She somewhat was still playing him and he did not seem to want to believe that. Basically his holding on to hope that she is the one because he actually is in love with her.
 
Even though she is fully aware that he is here to stay, he just needed to know the feeling is mutual. Hence the chorus his asking her indirectly what her position is in the relationship. This song displays his innermost thoughts and because he constantly was thinking about it, he implemented change by asking her how she truly felt about him.
