Family

What is the one thing you never want to lose? Family, friends may come and go as you age, but family will always be there. But that is not always the case, some of your friends that you love or care for, you might consider them family, like in the book the Outsiders S.E. Hinton. In the book the Outsiders there is a boy whose name is Johnny. He has abusive parents and basically his only good family is his gang.  You do not need to be a biological family, your family is the people that love and care for.

A person who is called successful in life is a person who has a happy family. Family is important to everyone in the world. "Family isn't whose blood you have. It's about who you care about. In the book the Outsiders Johnny does not have a happy family, well in actuality he does. The people he cares about, his gang. They stick together in such a way that when Johnny died Dally was so upset that he went and robbed a store and got shot by the store clerk an ran all the way to part where the cop shot him down. So the bond of family does not need to be blood it just has to be special.

There is one thing in the world that matters the most family. It does not need to be between blood but can be a special bond that a person has to another person or a group. So when all else fails your family is something that will stay with you forever and if they don’t you might need to consider who you call family.
