• Family is a learning ground to understand the harmony in relationship
with human beings, practice it in terms of its fulfillment, evaluation
and ensuring mutual happiness before we extend this to every unit in
the society and then to nature.
• What are the values that ensure harmony in family?
• Family is our first social teacher and inculcates values such as
patience, honesty, integrity, etc. To maintain harmony in the family we
must follow certain proposals, to understand the harmony between
family, we must first understand the relationship that exists between
oneself and another self(“I”).

• Share family stories and memories. ...
• Acknowledge each other's differences, talents and abilities, and use each
other's strengths.
• How important are good values within the family?
• Values are important also because they provide a foundation as a
source of protection, guidance, affection, and support. Instilling family
values can protect and guide children against making hurtful decisions
in the future as they teach a sense of right and wrong.
• Why values and harmony are important in a family?
• Complete family harmony is the key to happiness, prosperity and
success. Family harmony means that there is an atmosphere of
absolute peace, relaxation, unconditional love, fearlessness,
understanding (and not misunderstanding), freedom of expression
and longing for each other within the family.
• How does a family interact with each other?
• 1. Appreciation and affection- Appreciation and affection are about caring
for each other as family members. Sharing positive emotional feelings with
each other and being nice to each other are just a couple of ways families
show appreciation and affection.

• Does family matter in a relationship?
• While you may not consider it an eminent threat to your relationship,
it actually can play a huge role in your potential to go the distance as
a couple. "It is important for your family and significant other to mesh
well because you will be a family, and family is important," Dr.
Sherman explains.
• What is the most important value in family?
• 1. Kindness. Laura Froyen, PhD, a family and child development expert
and parenting coach, says kindness should make the top of the list for
families who want to define their values, because it sets the stage for
many other important traits like generosity, empathy, compassion,
and equity.
• Why is the value and importance of family and friendships important?
• It is important to surround ourselves with family and friends for
support and comfort in both times of joy and distress. Studies have
shown that having supportive relationships is a strong protective
factor against mental illnesses and helps to increase our mental well-
being.
• What is the importance of having unity in our family?
• Unity helps cultivate respect for both parents.
• Disunity can encourage disrespect of either or both parents. When kids
see discord constantly between their parents, they often pick up on the
roots of the disagreements. And if one parent is dismissive of the other,
that attitude is passed on to the kids.
Human dignity and respect in a time of crisis
is essential
• The first issue from which the world must learn is that human health
and safety should never be made a political weapon for power,
influence, and control. That does not mean that everyone will always
agree with political leadership on the handling of health policy. Such
matters need study, concrete factual evidence-based practices, and
scientific analysis that inform leadership decisions. Public opinion,
partisan ideology, and individualistic economic interests are the most
misleading factors in making such life-and-death decisions.
Human dignity and respect in a time of crisis
is essential
• A second lesson we can learn is the danger of sacrificing human dignity and
respect at the altar of presumed personal liberty and individual rights. Quite
frankly, nobody likes wearing masks and social distancing. It is, to be quite blunt, a
contradiction of much that makes us human. We want to see faces, we want to be
together, we want to congregate in groups of more than 5 people, and we want to
embrace. God created humanity as a social species that is made to be together.
Yet, in the rampant embrace of narcissistic ideology guised in the presumably
attractive labels of freedom and personal rights, many chose to flaunt the
necessary safety guidelines out of personal convenience and comfort. Sadly, this
choice probably cost countless innocent lives. Rather than honor personal liberty
and a sanctity of human life, a selfish political determination trumped human
dignity and thwarted genuine mutual respect. In exchange we expressed mutual
hatred, judgment, and disdain.
Human dignity and respect in a time of crisis
is essential
• A third lesson is that fear is the most destructive motivation in
humanity. Whether it was those who were so afraid of Covid-19 that
it motivated the most life-denying behaviors, those who were so
afraid of infringement on personal choice that they refused any safety
precautions to protect themselves or others from Covid-19, or fear
that the whole pandemic was some sort of radical hoax intended to
promote some sort of even more frightening new world order, the
fear drove some of the worst human behavior in modern history.
Human dignity and respect in a time of crisis
is essential
• Christians can make positive, and substantive changes from these three lessons.
First, we can claim the wisdom of scripture and remember that the idolatrous
trust we put in earthly leaders (regardless of their partisan loyalties) is
misguided. Our allegiance must be in God, and God alone. Rather than march to
the partisan drum, we need to be engaged in faithful dialogue, compromise, and
mutual understanding for the greater good of all, not just those who ascribe to
the same belief system as us. As humans who are all created in the image of God
and called “very good,” we must stop forcing our own selfish, narcissistic, and
narrow-minded self-interests on others. Christ calls us to be servants of one
another in love, not selfish combatants insisting on individualistic rights and
prominence. Finally, we must claim the Christian fact that we are called to live in
love, not fear. Together we can rise above the scourge of the past year!
