All too often people are not aware of the trait – – whether positive or negative – -they have absorbed from their families. You may feel contempt for your family’s pretentiousness and be unaware that you have absorbed some of the same mannerisms. Awareness of the trait could easily lead to it’s amelioration. Similarly, a positive awareness of connectedness to family can give you a sense of belonging and a feeling of continuity that will strengthen your own sense of identity.
