As a child growing up, I
have very few memories of the times when we gathered as a family to sit down
and eat dinner together. I grew up in a home where both of my parents worked.
My mother taught school, and my father worked during the night at a local
chemical plant. There was not much time available for us to sit down to eat
dinner together due to my parents' conflicting work schedules and the
extracurricular activities in which my sister and I participated.
It wasn't until I got
married and had two children of my own that I began to realize the importance
of eating dinner together. In my family there are elements that take us away
from each other, day in and day out, but as a mother I feel it is my
responsibility to bring us all back together again at the end of the day. In my
house, dinner time is a time of thanks. I give thanks for the food we share,
but I am more thankful for the family I share it with. Dinner time is a
time for us to share our day, and reflect on our thoughts. It is also a time
when we learn about honesty, perseverance, courage, sympathy and friendship.
Above all it is a time when my family are able to connect with the ones they
love.
As I look at the bread basket
which sits on my kitchen table, I am reminded of how the basket's tight weave
resembles the tightly woven strands (线)of my family. I believe
that through our family dinner, we will not only pass around the meat and
potatoes, but we will also hand round virtues that will shape and mold (塑造)us so that we can forever
embrace one another just as the basket embraces the bread.
