 ''Kenzoku is a Japanese term which means family, a bond that is shared by people with the same or nearly the same ideals, have the same commitment or even destiny. We know and feel the presence of the deepest connection of friendship. These people may be family members, a friend from high school, co-workers who we probably haven't talked to in decades but we know they are there for us when we need them. Time and distance do nothing to cut the bond we have with them. This bond, this chemistry encapsulated in this word is felt only to a few people, to those we absolutely trust'' |
