FAMILY: MICROCOSM OF SOCIETY
Family represents a microcosm of the broader human community—the society, encapsulating all its situations on a larger scale. Each individual is offered an invaluable education within a family, acquiring the necessary knowledge and skills for a successful life. However, one crucial condition must be met: individuals should avoid falling victim to blind family attachment and instead view their family members like any other human being.
The reality is that the diverse array of character types found in the world is mirrored within one’s own family. A family reflects a spectrum of moral examples. By observing their family and relatives, individuals can gain life experiences and make realistic plans for their own lives.
Unfortunately, only a few people genuinely benefit from this proximity. The reason for this is the absence of objective thinking among individuals. People often succumb to bias when thinking about their family members. They overlook their family’s mistakes while adopting an unsympathetic attitude towards those outside the family. They view outsiders from one perspective and their family members from another, resulting in an inability to learn from their own experiences or seek guidance from the lives of others.
Each individual is offered an invaluable education within a family. If one looks objectively at one’s family, one can learn important lessons, acquire the necessary knowledge and skills for a successful life, and contribute to the development of a positive society.
