we are often force to leave our local neighbourhood and family to earn a living with resulting feelings of loneliness and homesickness especially at first, this eventually leads to a distance developing between family members and weakening of ties, how can we keep family ties close and support one another when distances sometimes make it difficult to meet as often as we would like? would regular calls and messages be a strong enough subtitute ?

I dont think regular calls alone will be sufficient ,though it is necessary.
You could plan a get together every month or two or have lunch /dinner every 2 weeks.
Basically i think ,we must be act in such a way that we are personlly relevent to them.
