5) Children are the Fruit of More Than Love and Life - 2
So, let's take our mother and father for example and talk about it once again. In order to be born through your mother and father, first love between your mother and father must blossom.
The object relationship towards each other must be set up. And then in that environment of love, the harmonizing point of life, the life should be connected. The husband and wife should not dislike each other, and they must be ideal.
So a couple's love is established, when they become one through love like this. The husbands love is my love, the husband's life is my life and the husband's ideal would be my ideal.
On the other hand, it is the same with the wife's love, life, ideals. So at this point, where all becomes one unified position, is the child. That is why the child is the fruit of the father's and mother's establishment and investment.
They are the mother's and father's extension of life. Also, they are the embodiment of the ideal of their father and mother Those of you who have loved and borne children would know.
You would say to your dear son, "This is the substance of my love, an extension of my life, the embodiment of my ideal. It is the second me." From the start the children are born with love and life and an idealistic base, the more the parents look at them the more lovely they seem, the more they stir life, and appear to be an ideal object.
