I do value the Gibran sentiment . . .in practice, it can be difficult to hold that idea as you are dealing with the mundane.
My family has come together through this crisis so that is a good thing. There are other gifts that I believe are yet to be realized.
I am holding the intention for great healing and spiritual emergence - everyone sees families differently - despite what one poster said, I am "confused" about the notion - I think I get to decide that for myself - kind of "co-dependent," now that I think of it for someone else to tell me what I think or how I feel . . .and not helpful.
