Familiar Is Close To Family

Familiar Is Close To Family


The connection between “familiar” and “family” makes sense as each is bonded together with such tight linkage.  The members have things in common that even look so similar.

In some languages the word for family is “familia” so they’re impeccably related.  Words looking alike and even having meanings so interrelated are pretty amazing.  

Am I important in my family?  Yes, in fact those letters in that sequence are in the word.  Seeing the letters stand out impacts us differently, and we see our place with more significance.

In a class I showed them a word backwards, and asked if they could read it.  It was “ylimaf”.  Most said yes, it’s “family”.  I said I’m going to turn it around so they could see it, but it was different.  I turned it around and showed them f-AM-I-ly highlighted with the “AM” in red and the “I” in green.

The ways we look at things brings out more in what we see in the pieces that show us so much.  We realize incredible messages through visions expanding our perspective.  We can be brought closer to ones we thought were already near to us.
