What really caught our eye was this little bit: ... if you want a happier family, create, refine and retell the story of your family's positive moments and your ability to bounce back from the difficult ones.
Think about it for a second. It's more than just retelling that story, it's about refining …

"The street finds its own uses for things" is a line from William Gibson's cyberpunk short story Burning Chrome , and it's often used to explain the uses of technology that are unexpected, unintended, and oftentimes unsanctioned.

The job of the New York Times graphics department is to tell a story using graphics, and they turn out some great work in pursuit of that goal. On the other hand, the job of an analyst for a business is to solve a problem and move on to the next one.
