REHUGO Universal Truths- Quotes
A.“At the end of the day, a loving family should find everything forgivable.” ~Mark V. Olsen and Will Scheffer
Mark V. Olsen and Will Scheffer are the authors of the quote. They both had successful careers as writers for TV, film, and stage before they decided to incorporate their talents into their production company, Anima Sola Productions.

“A man travels the world over in search of what he needs, and returns home to find it.”~George Moore
George Moore is an Irish novelist who is considered an innovator in fiction in his day. He wanted to become a painter and so he followed his dream and went to Paris to do so. He painted Reminiscences of the Impressionist Painters.
B.Both quotes talk about a strong bond in families, the one which motivates one to come back to them.
The first quote means if there is a loving and caring family, then all the bothersome occurrences should be able to cancel out at the end. One only forgives someone they trust and a family is built up on trust. Therefore when someone makes a mistake, there will be a family that will forgive them and help them mend their way. A family has the faith that the one who makes a mistake will have learned from it therefore they can forgive them. Even if someone does not learn once or twice from their mistake, a family will always encourage them to do better the next time.
The second quote means that people go out in search of their identities but at the end of the day people come back to loved ones to cherish the moments and share adventures with them. Everyone needs to wants to establish themselves as someone but when they come home; they get rid of all the stress and become who they really are because they know no one is going to judge them. Often when people go out to establish themselves, they realize how harsh the world may be but they inside they know that there they have a family who will always be there for them no matter how far they go.
C.Both quotes apply to families today. They do so because in families there are teenagers who make mistakes and want to go out into the world to establish themselves and chase their dreams. End of the day, if they fail or even if they succeed, they come back home to family who appreciates and celebrates ones success or failure. When chasing a dream, teens make mistakes but inside, the family knows that they are growing up. Therefore, the family takes the mistake into consideration and helps the teen get back on their feet. By forgiving and forgetting mistakes, families help the young adult believe that there are people that care for them.
