Family dinner Usually in my family I am the one who cook because of two reasons, first one is because my mom come home tired from work and second one is because I am her only daughter. But during recess my mom decided to make dinner that day, it was a good thing because I actually missed her cooking. When is family dinner at my home we make sure that me and my brother make sure the house is clean. My mom was making all my favourite food which made me happy because it made me feel like home, feel the love and warmth of my family. What I observed in this dinner is that my father and mother we just happy to see me yet having to hide their hidden feelings of what really happened when I was away. It started as a peaceful dinner but as time went on, so you know that there is no peaceful black family dinner there is always drama, that is when on that table that my father hasn’t been going to work, so my mother being a black woman she would just remind my father that he should remember that there are many things to pay for like debts, policies and my brothers’ school fees. So I saw in my father’s face that the anger and being ashamed that when in those situations he would just go and watch some TV to destruct himself from my mother. What is fanny is that my mother seeing my father like that she would apologies to him and after that they will just joke about that. As for my brothers, the two youngest they will just play without care in the world which bring us joy as for the second born, he would just ask about music and girls which is very normal for a 15 year old. But what can I say I love them so. That is when I realized that in my family everything is a joke because we always look for positive energy in every situation as long as we stay together as a family. After the dinner what happened was that we would say what we appreciate in life so that we can thankful, what they were thankful for was to see their daughter have reached the tertiary level. That is when I realized in everything you do you must always think about your family and know where come from also where are you going. All I am saying socializing is very important because we will never be forever be the same because of new challenges or growing up as people but keep in mind family is very important.
