Family

Family is more than just being blood related.

1. The simple fact of being blood related, is family by definition.
2. The person/s you formed an actual bond with, blood related or not determines real family.
3. Family are often those you share the most meals with.

Moms Graduation & Celebration

This video is my belief of what real family is.

Real family is those that support and encourage each other.
Fake family is those that physically or mentally cause pain, harm or both onto each other.
Real family would never see a reason to ever cause pain, you would feel obligated to protect each other.

People are NOT family if they intentionally cause pain on those they are supposed to care for. Even if they are blood related, intentionally causing physical or mental pain is evil and that is NOT what family do to each other. Real family build each other up, make each other stronger, learn more about the world together, grow old and plan many gatherings together. That is what real family is to me.

An ideal family takes care of each other, without the need or will to hurt one another for one's benefit.

In this video you can see how my family supported and encouraged my mom on her accomplishment and celebrated all her efforts. We did this without any physical or mental pressure directed towards my mom to finish. My mom finished and endured college all on her own, with our simple support. She often asked me to come to her graduation and I said I would, so I did. She asked her other kids and family to come and they did.

Video Description:

5/19/2023 Was a pre-celebration and graduation for my mom's college.
5/20/2023 Was a second day celebration with my mom's life-long friends by the BBQ pit and swimming pool. Then we all rested until nightfall, when we as a family went to see the next installment to Guardians of the Galaxy.

YouTube Video Description:

This video is dedicated to my mom. 

This video was also created to help inspire others in not giving up on their goals. Whatever it may be, continue reaching for those goals! After being challenged with juggling her own business and college, many of life's stressing factors decided to also challenge her... she was still able to win her victory. Congrats mom! We all love you and this video is for you.

Video Editing Notes: Videos/Pictures were sent to me by family members, credit goes to them for those pictures and videos. Sorry for the pixelated scenes, I think I need a new camera for the studio for personal recordings. I'm not sure why Wendy's speech came out pixelated. It looked fine in the original recording.
