Dear Mother,
Why is FAMILY so important?
Family is a place where life begins and love never ends.
Family is a place where lives are nurtured and destinies revealed.
Family is a place where values are ingrained and character is formed.
Family is a place where courage is born and faith can be seen.
Family is a place where morals are learnt and respect is cultivated.
Family is a place where strengths are revealed and talents can be discovered.
Family is a place where love is revealed and memories are created.
Family is a place where generations thrive and legacies are built.
Family is a place where we learn, we grow and are changed forever.
Family is everything!
We laugh, we cry, we play, we love and we live.
And every FAMILY has a story to tell.
What will your FAMILY STORY be?
I’ve also been thinking about the idea of my family legacy. At a recent conference for businesswomen, they challenged us to look past the dollar signs and business goals and to, instead, pursue a legacy. What you wrote is a beautiful legacy to leave for one’s children and one I’d love to cultivate.
