What Makes A Family?

As I am locating a parking space this Sunday Fourth of July morning at Wal-Mart today, I begin to ponder the idea of what does it mean to be a family. The very definition of family signals debate. Two web definitions define family as all the members of a household living under one roof or a group of persons who shares common ancestry (The American Heritage, 2010). But, family can mean lot more than just people who share common DNA together or live under one roof.
I believe family is that person or persons that you feel closeness to and no matter what...you know that this person is someone you can depend on regardless of the circumstances. Is that not what one can say is the true meaning of family? I know I can depend on my family members whenever I need them. And that gives me comfort to know that I have someone who is championing for me to do well in life. What are your thoughts on what makes a family? I would love to hear from our readers of this Webzine.
Note: Feedback form is at the bottom of this page.
I also would like to wish everyone a Happy Fourth of July!!
