By: Dwiads

If we seen people around us we used to have a hard word to support our life and family. Unfortunately, after working so hard at office this reason start to change. They are not focusing on their family anymore but on their career.

Thus we need to stop for a while and reconsider. I have friend that have good career. Her office sent her many times to overseas. I have to admit she have great career but her family broken because of that.

I believe we need to think what we really want in life. If we work for our family, why we should destroy our own family because of hard work we did on the office? So it is significant to remember our passion about our family.

Now this is your time to take an action to choose what kind of system you want to choose to tighten your family bond. Then start discusses how you can strengthen your family bond.

1. Contact your family by SMS or phone - This is very effective way to show family how you love them when they are far away from you. The basic idea behind this is keep contact and have a chit-chat with your family member. It is recommended to always keep up with family and don't lose it. It can break your relationship. Now we already have modern technology to help us communicate with our family faster. SMS or phone has been proven can make your communication better. You still can call your family for about 5 minutes.

2. Show Appreciation - Most of the time we need to show our appretiation to our family. Show appreciation also can increase love between you and you family members. This will make you feel close to them and your relationship will get better. If you never do that, possible you or your family will feel empty in life. So it is necessary to show to your family as soon as possible if you love and care them so much. Not for tomorrow, but take an action today.

3. Give Flower - For so many years, people know flower as a symbol of fresh love and care. Fresh flower can have deeper meaning of love. Sometimes, I buy a bucket of flower to show my love to my wife. Flower is the best gift in the world. You can put those flowers in a vase and put in your family room to give fresh air and your will thanks for what you give to them. So if you love your family, why don't you give them flower?

4. Eat together - mostly eat at dinner time is a simple way to bring your family together and you can see face-to-face with your family. Even though it is not nice to have discussion while we eat, before dinner is ready you still may have discussion. When you have dinner together, you can share your greater feeling with your family. So you know exactly and feel your family condition. Sometimes you also can share view and ideas with them.

5. Watch movie together - This is also great opportunities to be together with your family. I often watch movie together with family. It feels different compared with watch movie alone. When you watch movie together you will see the reaction of your family. You will see them laughing, you will see them smiling or you will see they get surprise. Other than that, you also can share your thought about the movie.

6. Family holiday - I believe this is the best and the most effective way to be together with your family. Maybe for some of us family holiday will become the passion and dream of us as a parent. This is the unforgettable moment that can be remembered for all time. Sometimes having fun in family holiday can cost more money. In fact, it can be so much expensive. Luckily, there are some places that do not need a lot of cash. I do sometimes go to beach with my wife to enjoy our life together. You don't require to spend so much money to go to beach. If in your location you cannot locate beach, you still can enjoy your holiday on park. Playing in park also fun enough, as long as you doing together with family.

Those 6 methods I told you above is example how you can bound your family together. Actually they are a lot of ways to do that. The basic idea, you need to spend your time together with your family. If you are busy people, you can create an idea that needs shorter time.

It is really sad if you think you don't have time for family. If we take a look in the past. You can found so many families enjoy their life together, for example have a BBQ or dinner together with family. Do you notice that kind of thing recently?

Nowadays, people living in busy world where some of us have ambition to get better career. We do have hard work at the office. Sometimes we do it more than 8 hours a day. We will not surprise if in this modern world we found many families cannot do activities together.

Give a lot of money could the option for some people. Some of us will buy gaming console like Play Station or Xbox. So our kids can play all alone. What I think, it is so much better if you can buy a console game to play all together with family. You can have so much fun. Like having holiday with family, but in this case you don't need to go anywhere. It will be so much cheaper because you don't spend your money on your journey to the place you choose to have a holiday.

If you want to solve this kind of problem, you should make a plan to unite your family as one. If you don't make a plan, your family will not be united.

Sometimes one of your family cannot come to have a dinner because he or she want to go out with some friends or we as parent still busy working overtime to finish our job. So it is crucial to create a schedule. It isn't a problem if you create a plan to have a short time meeting or conversation.

Everyone on your family must have commitment to obey the play that already made. Including for parent, please stop working and ready to attend your dinner together with family. For children, choose the time when you want to have dinner with family and when you want to hang out with friends. Kids will not have a commitment if their parents do not give a good example.

You cannot change it tommorow. You can change it step by step. If you still can't commit with dinner, you could take your family on holiday. Take them out once per fortnight or maybe once per month. If the money is your problem. You still can have fun at home, for example you can watch movie or play a game just like I told you before. When you do more activities along with your family, it can tight your bound with your family.

In conclusion, you can choose which ideas that your family enjoy. As long as your family can enjoy the idea you choose. You will not achieve the goal you want if all of your family doesn't have a commitment.
