Wife complains that my family are boring - What shall I do?

Re: Wife complains that my family are boring - What shall I do?

Peace TONOM (Can I call you that? It sounds quite masculine to call you by your acronym)

The thing is my parents - I know them very well … Circumstances have made them quite cynical about the broader family … they used to be very cool and with it people … but still manage to do all the important Islamic stuff as well. I still feel we can have “fun” and be “Islamic” at the same time … My wife has kept me active … But I TOTALLY agree with her when she said it … :bummer: Something is wrong with my folks … they need to be cheered up … somehow !!!

Point is my wife knows they can be cheered up if our own affairs are sorted first … I have a tendency of doing a little bit for ourselves and then getting distracted with others again before our own affairs are fully sorted … She is right all the way throughout this thread … That is what I feel too …
