Family Structures and Legacies

For us Filipinos, family is the most important unit in the society. We depend so
much on our parents for protection, and for providing our needs during the
first moments of our lives. As we grow, we are bonded together with values
and traits that are first taught at home and applied in our day to day lives. In a
family, through good and bad times, we always find time to smile and look at
things in a bright side. Whatever situation we are in to, we are always
reminded that our family is there to discipline, support and love us.

What’s In

Personal and social relationships are seen as a strong social context in

Philippine society. We basically try to make our friendship and community into
family-like relationships that are shared and supported.
As Filipinos, we prefer to have smooth interpersonal relationships with
one another and go out of our way to create an environment in which
everyone around us feels comfortable and accepted.

A doctor entered the hospital in a hurry after being called for immediate

room.
He met the boy’s father waiting for him. On seeing him, the father says: “Why
did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son’s life is in
danger? Don’t you have any sense of responsibility?”
The doctor was just calm and said: “I am sorry, I wasn’t in the hospital and I
came as fast as I can after receiving the call… And now, I hope you’d calm
down so that I can do my work.” “Calm down? What if your son was in this
room right now, can you make it calm down? If your son dies now what will
you do?” said the father angrily.

The doctor was just calm and smile at him saying: “… Doctors cannot prolong
lives. Go and pray for your son and by God’s grace we will do our best”.
Then the father murmured “Giving advice when we’re not concerned is so
easy”.
Some hours after, the doctor went out from the surgery room and happily
announce that “Your son is safe!”. Without waiting for the father’s response,
he carried on his way while saying “If you have questions, ask the nurses”.
And without waiting for the father’s response, he carried on his way running.
“You can ask the nurse if you have question
“Why is he so arrogant? He couldn’t wait some minute so that I can ask about
my son’s state,” commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after
the doctor left.
The nurse said, with tears: “Yesterday, his son died in a road accident, when
we called him he for your son’s condition he was at the funeral”.
Now that your son’s life is saved, he left running to finish his son’s funeral.
