Happiness and Health. Every human home was originally intended to be a real haven of rest- a little heaven on earth, where all of the children would learn to be unselfish. Attitudes of love and loyalty were to be inculcated into their minds. It was to be a place where youth could grow up happily, and to which they might return for comfort and guidance even after having left their parents to establish new homes for themselves. Such an ideal whenever realized goes far to minimize problems of later life. Some may not have such a home that is the game of life. True, there are those who think that life must go on according to the brutal ways of the jungle. They claim that human feelings really do not matter. This is far from true. Man was “made in the image of God” that they might reflect the glory and love of God. Originally he was placed in beautiful garden home, not in a cruel, heartless jungle with no law except survival of the fittest. A happy home should be the heritage of every pe...

Natural Family

One beautiful day In watched too little brown birds building a nest in a tree. It was the time for mating,the loveliest season of the year; all nature was radiant and beautiful.Green leaves covered the trees; flowers were blooming every where.Fascinated by watched those little birds flitting about,searching for the materials for the materials needed for their nest. The male bird was very active,bringing all kinds of twigs and grass and other things.He seemed to thoroughly enjoy the task of building a home for his future family. But the Little lady bird was not idle by any means.In fact,she was the one who made many of he decisions,as together they build their nest. Them something strange began to happen. When the nest was half built, the Little lays evidently decided that the place was not suitable.Some hidden instinct told her that she was building her nest too close to the neighbour's cat! so she tore it all apart and started building again in a safer spot. And regardless of how ...

Price of a Happy Home

A happy home is never an accident.Someone always has to pay the price, not only in money,but also in the deeper realities of life.But a happy home is worth whatever it may cost.Fortunately it is not a question of money.People who are very poor in this world's goods can be so happy that their joy exceeds anything that money can buy.There are others who have all that this world can offer,and yet are utterly miserable.Happiness does not depend upon the amount of money one posse3sses, but rather on a wholesome personality and outlook on life. To build a happy home, both parents must be prepared to get along well with each other.Their personalities must blend together.Each must respect the rights of the other, and both must be prepared to work out their problems without quarreling .Neither parent can expect to be right all the time.Each must be willing to give in to the other for the good of all in the home.Defects in one's own disposition or habits may have to b...

Centre of the Home

The true center every home is the mother.No one else can ever take her place.Her tastes,her desires,her ideals,like those of the little mother bird,will influence everything that goes on within that home.All the interests and activities of a happy family cantre around the mother.If she is kind and cultured,her home will reflect her fine ideals. But if she is careless or ignorant,the home will quickly show her poor attitude or lack of training. Education is very important to young man if he is to succeed in the business and professional world.Everyone will agree on this .But education in the art of home-making is even more important for a young woman,for into her hands has been committed the very future of the human race.Every girl should be give though training in the principles of health,child care and home skills.The success of the family,the community,the nation and the world depends on the young women of the today and the kind of homes they establish.There is no greater responsibil...

Why some homes fail

Selfish people never create happy homes.Their personalities are too immature.A person who is basically selfish has never completely grown up in mind.He is still an undeveloped adolescent,not a mature person.He will always want his own way, regardless of the feelings of others. By his actions he is saying,"I want what I want when I want it" Such an attitude can never build a truly happy community.Young people should certainly keep this in mind when considering marriage.It is never wise to marry a selfish person,for the chances of changing him or her are slim indeed.That is why so many homes endure only under great stress or eventually break up.People who are willing to go more than half way in solving any problem they may face. Jealousy has no place in a happy home .A jealous person tends to be insecure.He is never sure of himself.A happy home cannot be build around a person whose feelings are easily injured.Real homes are built around a person whose feelings a...
