Making time for the family

Family is the foundation of a healthy and successful life. Knowing that you have people around you that love you shapes how you see and react to the rest of the world. Family can be one person or 15 people in your inner circle. What is most important is that they have your best interest at heart. The next most important thing is that you give that love and support right back.

By being an example of love coming full circle, you can show others what a healthy relationship looks like. They can begin to mimic the positivity and joy that they see in you.

Children can’t be what they can’t see. If you are an example of strength, resilience and persistence, then a child can see the potential they have within. This is the importance of family. This is also why The Carolinian newspaper and Co. and ME host community events. We understand that being visible is critical to community growth. Let the children see that there are so many things that they can be.
