Family Bonding
What I Personally Feel About Bonding?
Now a these days, it is very difficult to maintain the bonds that we have over the years especially when you have a large group of family members which consist of different relatives and cousins that are from different generations.
The age gap makes a difference in gauging how well we communicate with the people around us. The wider the age gap it becomes harder for us to communicate especially if your parents are still stuck in the traditional way of thinking which is not wrong at all but makes it more hard for them to understand the ever-changing society in the current era.
We are all growing and changing differently with different prospects of life and different way of thinking. We express ourselves in a whole new level which is what makes us special for who we are as compared to the olden days whereby it is harder for us to socialize but the integration of the society as a Racial Harmony Society has make it easier for us to communicate easier which enables us to learn different races' culture and traditions to avoid any misunderstandings and quarrels.

We are all different but sometimes it's hard to explain and communicate with your family members unless their age gaps are not too far apart from us.
Bonding due to the different commitments and stressful life-style of having to work day in and out just to earn enough to support the family has make it difficult for it to take place to ensure that we are in touch in the close ones that we cherish.
Thus, It's going to be hard to hope that such gatherings would continue running but I would definitely be more than glad in assisting the organizers within my family to organize such a fun-filled event that involves almost all my family members to catch up with each other on the missing hours that we have yet to share with each other about.
It will Soon Be Our Turn
To Maintain The Bonds of our Family Members
Since The Trophy is Re-Used Every Year
Since The Trophy is Re-Used Every Year
I Hope The Trophy can Be Passed Down To The Future Generations to Fight For The 1st Place
