Much language‚ both religious and non-religious is symbolic

For some blood means a life of wealth and privilege‚ for others a life of servitude.” –Words spoken from a recent movie I have watched. It means a lot for some people‚ and it may mean nothing at all to others. For me it asks the question ‘What does “blood is thicker than water” mean?’ a question that leads to new set questions of why and how‚
