|Q|u|o|t|a|t|i|o|n| Saying Nothing Says Something ~ David Niven

What do we mean when we don't say anything? We might not mean anything at all. But for many people, especially children, the absence of communication is a source of great concern. When we don't say anything at all we leave the door open for worst-case-scenario assumptions. Your family needs to hear from you, even if it's just to tell them what you think they should already know.

|Q|u|o|t|a|t|i|o|n| Believe in Yourself to Help Your Family ~ David Niven

Regardless of the effort people put into their family life, some are confident it will work out well while others fear it will work out poorly. Let yourself see the good side of what you are doing and what is happening with your family. Family life is not a test, so there is no reason to worry away your time thinking about results.
