Families are there to love us, guide us, and bring us to that point of maturity---physical, emotional, and spiritual---so that we can go out into the world, knowing the highest Truth of Who and What We Are, and, to be that light of Oneness in the world, to let it shine, and to pass that message on. And as we go out into the world, we find that we often expand our idea of "family" as our love for all of humanity grows.
