Human lives are joined together,
especially in conjunction with their families. Those families that have become cognizant of this tend to develop a culture of cohesiveness, which motivates action for the benefit of the entire family unit, as opposed to one lone individual, vying in the world for himself. Wealth is certainly much more easily accumulated in this way, but the intangible benefits of “belonging” are the more essential results. Such family ties are invaluable and especially difficult to initiate when they are not already in place. I speculate that your minds eye is seeing the continuous perpetuation of the human spirit, as made manifest in your ancestry. The vow renewal thing is neat! I think that I should like to start doing that with my spouse, each night! I enjoyed reading this piece a great deal. Thanks for sharing it. Be Good!
