Imparts High Contribution on Society |
|
From time immemorial a great emphasis has been laid upon the saga of family and relationships, in each and every society. To be very precise, a family is regarded as the smallest unit of the society and also most virtuous. As a result down the ages a family has been regarded as highly significant. There is no doubt in it that it takes a lot of commitment and also hard work to develop family relationships. With all the negative influences around us, we struggle to hold our families together. But it's a battle that is well worth it. If we quote David O. McKay in this respect it will be more clear. To him, "Family must come first and foremost before anything else, even before our career. "No other success can compensate for failure in the home. The poorest shack in which love prevails over a united family is of greater value to God and future humanity than any other riches." What does this signify? The sole meaning of this is that all types of materialistic aspirations regarding money, wealth, and great careers in no way can come before family, to a very individual. It is due to the fact, money in no way can purchase or get hold of the happiest moment on earth and therefore can make another feel joy. The same notion was also reverberated by Eugene Hansen. He said, "I learned money and material possessions are not the keys to happiness and success. Even with the constant financial challenge, we still had a good life. There was love in the home. Home was the place where we wanted to be. We did have two very significant items: we had a piano and we had a bookcase. How significant those two somewhat simple possessions were in the development of productive talents and interests so important in our early years."
