Tradition, Trust, Forgive, Laugh, and Appreciate: five reasons why my Viray family is so close. Any family, regardless of origin, size, and distance from one another, can apply these to also build a safe and loving tradition. It’s not a perfect recipe, and I’m sure there are more traits and ways for families to be close in their own ways. These five happen to be our family staples. It’s like the lumpia and pancit at any Filipino family party. They can be cooked and look different, but everyone is happy to see them on the table, and everyone can rely on them to satisfy what they think their stomach needs. I hope my story will encourage others to reflect deeply on what it takes for their own family to be strong and devoted. Keep demonstrating those values by living by them every day and teaching the younger ones the purposes and reasons for family. Create tradition. Create your version of Friday Dinners. — Rosemarie Fontela
