A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one another it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
