Hi everyone,
I hope we are all doing good. I have come to share with you how my parents' relationship influence on how I relate with people today. My parents are both lovely and unique in their own ways. My father was a kind, loving and outspoken person while my caring and loving mother is an introvert and reserved person. Like many other children out there, we love our both parents but each child has their hidden favourite.
For me, I'm closer to mummy but prefer daddy's relationship style. As said earlier, dad was outspoken and more friendly within the neighborhood and outside. He had a lot of friends and related so well with them. I used to wonder how he was able to balance his relationship with his many friends, but I knew he was at his best with them. This was always obvious whenever he had a function. The way people used to rally round him was inspiring, and this was due to his relationship with people.
In fact, the day my daddy passed away was a testament. None of us, children was at home. We were all in our respective houses in cities, when they called us that our father had passed on. It was a shocking news that entailed unplanned journey. The distance was long that we didn't get home until evening. But, it was a different case when we got home. People at home, dad's friends at church have all gathered to make the necessary preparation for his burial. They didn't even allow his body to suffer. They were the ones who took him to the hospital before the incident happened and still stood by the family, after his passing.
My mother's relationship was not too bad. She's a reserved person that hardly talks. She has few friends, or let me say just two friends and she holds them in high esteem. She doesn't joke with them but aside those two friends, she has a shallow relationship with others, because she hardly talks.
Having seen and evaluated parents' relationships, and their dynamics. I saw its great influence on my relationship. Even though I was closer to my mother and always quiet like her. I have embraced my father's kind of relationship. I now believe having good relationship with people is of benefits. Even the Holy Bible says, "there is a friend that seems closer than a brother".
Truly, no one knows the heart of human, as my mother would say, but I believe maintaining good relationship with people with carefulness can also be of great gain. In fact, I'm now more open minded like my father and I'm enjoying every bit of it.
My father's kind of relationship has greatly influenced me. In my heart, I just want to be happy and make everyone around me happy. Even, at my church, people are always amazed at how lively I am and how free am always being with first timers in church. I just would just want them to feel at home. I'm glad that I'm positively influenced by my parents' relationship.
Thanks for reading.

Having a good relationship with people at various places you frequent is important. We need people and can't do without them. Maintaining a good relationship might not be very easy because it demands wisdom to deal with us humans.
