Raising Children In God's Will (075) Chapter 2. Children's Love and Parents' Love Section 2. The Reason We Need Children
3) For the Sake of the Expansion of the Four Sides of a Relationship - 4
Nowadays, we humans want a greater person, better people, than yourselves... If you ask young women, "What are you going to be?" they will answer, "I will become a beautiful young lady with virtues, and marry husband even more magnificent." They will think like that.
And if you ask young men, these youth here, "What do you want?," they would answer, "I want to become a more valuable and handsome man and marry a more splendid woman as my spouse." These are inevitable and common desires of men, so we see it.
When we look at it this way, if the two can become a couple that can unite perfectly into one, we can say that they are a true and precious husband and wife. If so, this valuable couple should not stop with themselves.
To expand a better environment standing on an environmental position, they will need children, wouldn't they? Like you usually see in the movies, when your dear wife becomes pregnant, the husband rejoices without noticing.
Well why is he happy? Because it means the expansion of himself, and the expansion of a base that connects himself to a larger extent. Since it is needed, we desire it.
Through having children we connect to four sides. This sphere, where the couple concentrated to love each other, expands bit by bit to a diffusive realm of love.
