I and my Family

by Khalid M Darwish   Jan 18, 2013


I: Finance minister (bank) for the whole family,
who provides all the required materials on an economical basis.
This requires calculation of daily, monthly and annual budgets
in comparison to income, in the order to avoid all means of poverty.

My wife: Internal minister who keeps the family living in peace
by making every needs available within the limited levels,
including cooking, clothes washing and kids raising.
This requires a multi-mental and talented wife as mine.

Eldest son: Transport minister who transports all members,
including me, each to his appropriate place.
This requires that he'd be able to drive all means of transport
including bicycles, bikes and cars.

Eldest daughter: Legal counsel who makes proposals
for family's problems and crisis, including disasters.
This requires that she's all opportunities
to judge anyone who's guilty, including me.

The other kids (four): Oppressed people, who just ask their authority
to provide them all sorts of fun, including bicycles,
game stations and toys - of course after having their stomachs
full to the uppermost levels.

The last kid: Intelligence (FBI), who's sent by the family higher authorities to bring the secret news, plots and all information about the other members.
This may include some serious adventures and sacrifices.
Once he gets captured by any member
he immediately runs to hide behind me to avoid punishment.

    This is really unique; I really like the you formatting, making it appear as a profile for each family member. Is the word minister a formal term? I've never heard it used this way. I also like the profile of "The Last Kid" and the fact that you referred to him that way. I could tell, before reading that his info that he was probably drastically different from the others. I guess every family has at least one trouble-maker, haha.
