A family is any group of people to whom you know you belong. You know you belong to your family of origin because they birthed and raised you. You know you belong to your family of friends because you laugh at the same jokes as well as share each other’s burdens. You know you belong to your spiritual family because you find connection, service, and inspiration with them. You know you belong to your tribal family because you have common values, history, and culture. You know you belong to the human family because you share the same needs, hopes, and loves. You know you belong to the Universe because you are an integral part of Its boundless creativity. You know you belong to yourself because you are here. No matter who you are or where you are, you belong.
