    Thanks for the inspiration! The way you speak about your family, both biological and real-life-family, is both honost and respectful. It is so refreshing to listen to the way you incorporated non-traditional family values in your life.

    Love this video! The child at the end of the video brought everything together with his statement " you don't just go to the people that look like you, you embrace everyone". ♥♥

    This is beautifully inspiring.. Dr. CJ Meadows seems to understand the importance of family by cultivatating unity. I'm not surprised by low number in LIKES. Perhaps the tiny biblical scriptuure phrased at bottom of a slide?! It's understandable. Reaching for Knowledge that Brings Understanding and Wisdom through right action for our higher humanity. That's the ultimate goal. Warm Blessings to All Namaste 💞🙏✨

    ( REHAB TIME! ) THE FIRST THING THA EU MUST INNERSTAND ABOUT A FAMILEYE IS THAT IT IS A SOCIAL SYSTEM. SOCIAL SYSTEM INVOLVE ROLES WAVES OF RELATING SOCIAL STRATEGIES AND BELIEFS THA R INTENSELY RESISTANT TO CHANGE. FACTS OVA FEELINGS!
