Family is an indestructible fortress that gives a feeling of comfort and safety. I have not created my own family yet, but I already know what a real happy family looks like. For me, my mom and dad became a vivid example of a strong and romantic relationship. I have always been very sympathetic to people who live with one of the parents. Many families break up under the yoke of circumstances, people cease to find joy in living together, turn this life into torture, and simply in the end their nerves do not stand. A very sad outcome, because children suffer the most. I look at my parents, look back and remember the wonderful childhood that they gave me, and I feel sorry for people who do not see the light of family. I remember so much warmth, joy, tender mother's hands that stroked my hair before bedtime and a strong father's shoulder that always supported and protected from difficulties and hardships. It made me such a woman who I am now! I have a very vivid childhood memory of my parents. They were young, I was born in a second year of their marriage. They did not manage to enjoy each other, enjoy freedom. Immediately there was a bunch of obligations and responsibilities. It was very difficult for them, but the most important thing that they did was to stay together under any circumstances. I kept wondering what the secret was, any other couple had already divorced from such stress. Once I saw such a picture. My mother got up in the morning with me, I did not sleep all night, I was poisoned a bit. That is, she did not sleep all night with me. Waking up tired, she cooked breakfast and broke a plate. She had a bad day, but she held on. Father came home in the evening and told her about his day. He had problems at work. She came and embraced him, sat next to him and they were going to discuss all the problems and how to help my father fix everything. It was so unusual. The woman was almost on the verge of a nervous breakdown, but she let go of the situation and simply supported her beloved man. Father looked at my mother and asked: "What happened to you today? I see in your eyes that you are upset." And at that moment she burst into tears, she could not restrain herself. They talked for a long time, then hugged and mom fell asleep at her husband`s knees, like a little girl. Father has always been a leader in the family, this does not mean that my mother did not have the right to vote, it means that she respected him and completely trusted him. My father is a very wise man, I hope that I look like him. I want to become for my husband a reliable friend, a passionate lover, and an equal partner with whom he will have something to discuss, starting with politics and football and ending with the choice of food in a supermarket. I was always interested to know how to live half a life together. My parents gave each other fifty years. Oh my God!!! It's almost a whole life. And this does not mean that they had everything going smoothly, they quarreled and argued but never left and did not abandon each other. My mother always told me: "Even if you and your husband had a quarrel you still need to go to one bed and take cover with one blanket so that it doesn't happen between you!" I support her one hundred percent. Thanks to my parents I realized what true love is and what is the secret of a lasting marriage. I would like to live the same way. But I think I will have my own story.
