Hi!
An interesting conversation regards family.
There is this old question as to who would the son save in a situation when mother and wife is drowning. Some might say to save the mother since they can get another wife and there is only one mother. I would not answer this directly but I would say that the mother with a sense of fullfillment in her life realising that she had lived her life to the fullest would ask her son to save his spouse. This shows the unselfish love.
The mother with true love for her son would realise the importance of marriage (having herself cherished her own marriage) which in the first place had been instituted by a Divine Being (I had mentioned in my earlier post).
Her son having chosen to get married must have loved his wife otherwise he would not have done so. Yes, he also loves his mother to whom he had been given life - the Gift of himself. This gift had been given and to take it back means the insincerity on the part of the giver in this instance.
Letting go in life is sometimes not the easiest thing to do especially if the relationship is so rich - the love for and of another. This love goes beyond a selfishness which we might not be aware of. This selfishness leads to the possession of another.
