From the Songs for the Journey Home, the Ten of Wave Songs (Ten of Cups); from the Magic Neko Deck, the Jack of Spades:
What a gift it is to pass the habit of love and kindness on to future generations. Although there are many positive patterns we might inherit, there are also others that are not. When repeated over and over, passed down from one to another, they begin to see normal. The cold days of winter are a perfect time to reflect on how we respond and relate to life with an objective eye. Just because our family has always been this way doesn't mean it's beneficial. The Jack of Spades' balls of yarn remind me of one great thing about learning to crochet: if you make a mistake, you can simply pull on the yarn and unravel it. Likewise, becoming aware of unhealthy ancestral patterns is the first step to changing them. Future generations may depend on our choice.
