The core of any family is what is changeless, what is going to be there──shared vision and values.

Stephen R. Covey
About This Quote

The core of any family is what is changeless, what is going to be there. Shared vision and values. It is amazing to see how the same family can have so many different values, each one different from the rest. Yet, it is because they are all different that the family is able to be together.

Each person brings something different to the table, but when they are all there, they are able to create a unified whole. Each person has their own unique ideas about life and these are just as important as everyone else’s. The key to a strong family lies in getting them all to share ideas and visions in order to make their lives even stronger.
