I Stand By My Family Forever: He Aint Heavy He's My Brother" By The Hollies

My aunt did something really amazing on Facebook.  She posted a slideshow that depicted old photographs of my late father.  They were so old and so rare even I haven't seen them before.  Apart from the photos, there were some music from their era that was also played along with the slideshow.  One of the songs that was there was "He Aint Heavy, He's My Brother" by The Hollies.

I guess I mentioned this because this month we celebrate Father's Day but sadly it's been three years since he passed away.  I still miss him to this day and what hurts the most is the fact that he died just when things were starting to look up.  Apart from my father, this song applies also to my brothers and my mother. Their joy is my joy and their sorrow is my sorrow.  Right now they are the world to me and all I want is to see them happy and safe.

As I've mentioned time and time again on this blog, my family is everything to me.  I don't mind having it tough so long as they are all safe and sound.  Even when we disagree at times, I will always stand by them.  If I help them, I don't ask for anything in return because they're my family.  They are never a burden to me because I care about them and they care about me.  No matter I stand by my family forever.

Shaking Off The Bad Habits: Quit Your Lowdown Ways By The Hollies

If there's one thing that we all have in common is that we are not perfect.  There are some habits or even eccentricities that we all have that can annoy or even turn people off.  It can become a problem if more and more people get offended by these bad habits.  When it gets to that point, you better start kicking those habits off.  One song that reminds me of that is "Quit Your Lowdown Ways" by The Hollies.

What habits are we talking about here?  Being stingy, asking for favors but won't do any in return, opportunistic, mean and so on.  These habits and traits are a real turn-offs.  The more you exhibit them, the more people will hate you to a point where they might do something to you later on.  You won't see it but it comes, it comes too late and will hit you hard.

I'm not saying that getting rid of those bad habits and traits will be easy.  It will take time but it will be out of your system if you try hard enough.  It's better than earning the wrath of the people around you.  It's not worth keeping so shake them off while you still can.  It'll pay off later on.
