Well, to tell the truth, I have a strong family tie with my relatives, with my family members. Because of this, I spend five or six hours a day with them. During the day, all of my family members, for example, after having dinner together, we gather and try to discuss our problems, for example, related to work, study, and other situations. Our typical day involves having breakfast together, having dinner together, having lunch together, discussing some problems, and watching TV together. It's the best lifestyle, a fulfilling lifestyle.
