10 Marks Of A Beautiful Family Culture pt. 2

//thread//
Structure
A beautiful family culture has a well-defined structure to it.

Each role is clearly defined and understood by each person.

Expectations for those roles are set and discussed on a regular basis.
Organization

A country in disarray (anarchy) can not be beautiful,

neither can a family in disarray

Art in disarray (modern "art") can not be beautiful,

neither can a family in disarray

A garden in disarray (weeds) can not be beautiful,

neither can a family in disarray
Beauty

It may seem obvious, but a beautiful family culture must embrace beauty.

Embracing beauty is overlooked in our world because it sees...
prettiness,
attractiveness,
and likeability
as equal to beauty

They're not.

With beauty comes truth, goodness, and reality.
Humility

Your family culture will never be beautiful when people are prideful and selfish.

What acts come to mind when you think of "beautiful acts"?

I promise you they're all acts of selflessness.

Focusing on these will always result in a culture that's beautiful.
Fun

Do you know what it means for your body to be in the “parasympathetic state”?

If you don’t, go look it up.

Having fun is a sign of being in this state.

It’s a beautiful thing to watch your whole family laugh and have fun and enjoy life.

No fun, no beauty.
Seriousness

Being fun ALL the time will never be regarded as beautiful.

Why?

Because there are serious matters,

sacred matters,

that should not be taken lightly

It's ugly to poke fun at sacred things in the name of liberty.
Values

It’s a beautiful thing to see a family with strong values.

Even if you don’t agree with their values.

It’s beautiful to watch...

Values being passed down,

Whole hearted belief,

Standing for truth.

Being carried away by every new idea is hideous.
Mission

Few things are more beautiful than a team working together to accomplish a mission.

When your family has a clear understanding of its mission
and
everyone is working together to accomplish it,

The family culture is pleasing to behold and beneficial to the community.
Training

This may seem like an odd mark of family culture

But if you think back to the job you had that you weren’t properly trained for,

You’ll know that it’s ugly trying to figure things out on your own.

It’s beautiful to watch a child be lovingly trained out of ignorance.
Habits

Good habits are crucial to having a long-lasting beautiful family culture.

family dinner > eating separated

playing outside > playing video games

The habits that your family has will predict where you will be, regardless of your intent.
