The role of family in everyone's life can hardly be overemphasized. Look at a tree! You can see its thick trunk, branches and lush foliage. But what is hidden from your eyes is its root system. Roots not only provide the tree with water and nutrients, but they also support the trunk, keeping it upright, flexible and strong. A tree with weak roots will not survive in the environment, and, conversely, a welldeveloped root system allows the tree to grow and develop harmoniously, no matter what. Both for a tree in the wilderness and for a human being in the modern world, it is necessary to feel a persistent connection with the roots in order to fully develop and grow.

In the place where I was born, people say: "Blood is not water." This means that "Blood ties" are extremely strong and that kinship relations are indestructible. Our ancestors believed that together with blood they pass on to their descendants the very Life, all the accumulated experience, characteristic features of the clan and its ability to survive and thrive. I think that the sacred duty to protect our offspring is written in our genetic code. And that's why mankind has survived as a species.

  So my parents, during the military actions on the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic, abandoned everything: their house, successful business, their social circle and moved to the Republic of Crimea. I know that it was very hard for them to do this. But my sister and I, our well-being, our safety and our lives in general depended on this decision. My parents wanted us to grow up under a "peaceful sky" and not to see the horrors of war. I heard their long conversations in the kitchen and how my mother repeated: "The main thing is the children! We must keep the children safe!" So we found a new home. And although it was not easy for them to start life from scratch, my parents step by step created all the conditions for a happy childhood.  

 I can't find words to describe how much I am grateful to them and how much I love them! They are not just my protectors, but also my guides to adulthood, my first teachers, mentors and closest friends. They are always "on my side", they are my inspiration, my support, my life reference point. With my family, I don't need a shield to protect myself from the outside world, they are my shield. I don't need to "wear a mask", they accept me for who I am. This is unconditional love in all its forms... . 

A person who has a loving family, who is supported and cared for in every situation, is incomparably rich. He has a life jacket in the stormy sea of life in the form of his mother, father, brothers and sisters. He is not alone. He has someone to share both joy and sorrow with... Such a person bravely accepts the challenges of fate and boldly keeps his course towards a successful future!
