It took me years and years to grasp this one, not sure if I still have it fully:
"The wisest of women builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down." -Proverbs 14:1
I think this applies to one's role in the home and the larger community. You are either working toward the larger goodness or you are contributing to a dysfunctional dynamic of decay. Notice there is building up or tearing down--no middle ground.
It's undermining to live in a home where you are being "torn down" inadvertently or not. A healthy family supports and builds up its members. I hope you feel like our family lifts and supports you--that's our heart and hope.
