A discussion on the impact of family to the society

1. WHEN FAMILY IS
DISINTEGRATED
PaulYang

2. I raise chickens in my backyard.
In cold winter days like now, they huddle
and tango together to keep themselves
warm.

3. Individualism is a luxury chickens couldn’t
afford.
They rely on each other for survival,
just like early human beings.

4. Sometimes I wonder:
Are modern people really superior to
chickens?

5. Why they formulated so many theories like -
individualism
feminism
homosexualism
marriage equality

6. to justify behaviors that are not to the
best interests of the mankind as a
whole?

7. Why they are so obsessed with self-interests
and personal rights, but are apathetic to
other people?

8. Why they mistreat, exploit, take advantage
of, rob, abuse, torture and slaughter their
own kind?

9. Why they greedily accumulate wealth far
exceeding their needs at the expense of
their fellow human beings?

10. Why little by little they abandoned all the
values that held them together and made
them strong as a species?

11. I realize that, as history has shown -
Evil sometimes prevailed over good,
and people lost conscience allowed
themselves to go with the flow.

12. Perhaps we come across such a time
again.

13. I am not willing to give up hope, though,
as we still see goodness in people like
firefighters
doctors without borders
and tango dancers alike…

14. I appreciate them because it takes a
big heart to open your arms to
others,
to provide a supporting shoulder
for those in need,
and to be a good Samaritan.

15. Tango is created by such people -
immigrants and street women who
are homeless, vulnerable, lonely,
looking for a refuge in a strange land,
yearning to be loved, and who are
sympathetic to others like themselves.

16. Like chickens, they huddle and
tango together to keep themselves
warm in a cold world.

17. I also see hope in parents who love their
children and teach them to love each
other,
to take care of their little brothers and
sisters,
and to work as a team.

18. When such children grow up,
they will become responsible
members of the society.

19. Evil prevails only
when family is disintegrated,
when family values are lost,
when human bonds are faded away,
when everyone becomes egocentric,
And…

20. when individualism, feminism, hatred,
divorce, single parent family, irresponsible
sex, self-indulgence, gun culture and
materialism become the accepted norms
in a society.

21. But I don’t think that will be the case
forever, as history has also shown -
As long as there are men and women,
there will be love, family, children, and
family values.

22. So evil cannot prevail for very long.

23. Family is and will always be the
cornerstone of human civilization.

24. Our collective desire to survive and our
collective conscience reject what is bad
for us as a species.

25. After all, we a part of nature.
And the law of nature overrules the law
of men.

26. Perhaps that’s why in times like this
more and more people turn to tango
now, a dance that connects us, a dance
that is consistent with family values, a
dance that teaches the world to love,
and a dance in which many rediscovered
conscience and compassion.
