The family is the bedrock of any society or country.
Strong families make strong societies.
The society is nothing but a reflection of the condition of
the families within it.
Where family values are lacking, where family structures are
broken down, the society is affected adversely.
I believe strongly that in order to fix the problems
prevalent in our country, we need to return and take a look at how the families
here are structured and managed.
It is only when there is healing in the home that our communities
will become healthy.
The corruption, violence and despondency we see all around
us are mere symptoms of damaged family structures.
The family is a micro society – within it we have leadership
structures, communication issues, power struggles, competition for equitable
distribution of available resource and other issues found in the larger society.
The family unit is a cradle where individuals are groomed
for the good of the larger society.
I believe that individuals from caring,supportive families
where their self-esteem has been carefully nurtured contribute more positively
to society.
It is my prayer then that we are all endowed with the wisdom
we need to ensure that our homes are places of healing where every person in it
are well groomed for the greater good of all.
Aunty Mo.
