Is family always blood? I used to think that it is until I met a lot of wonderful people. There is family, your parents and siblings. There are friends, your school, university, and childhood friends. Then, there are friends who become family. Such people showed me the true meaning of family. Although some of them have different religion, race, and community, this doesn't stop us from being a family. For me, home isn't a place, It's a feeling. similarly, family isn't always blood, it is the people in your life who wants you in theirs. The ones who wants the best for you and wants you to be happy. I'm blessed and forever grateful because I have such people in my life. As teachers, sometimes we're going to meet students who have different backgrounds, religions, ethnic groups, or races than we do. The important part is that how we accept and welcome them. Let them feel that they're home, they're accepted, and they're family.
