I hear this a lot, but honestly, I've never had a bond with anybody solely because of a crucible. I have bonded with family, friends, Kiwanians, co-workers and sorority sisters without a crucible. Unless you count child birth as a crucible, because that could have been part of the bond with my kids, but I think giving birth was a crucible only for me, not for them. It is the bonds with these people that have helped me get through a lot of difficult situations, but the bonds were there first. The bonds are because they are people I enjoy, who share my values, with whom I work toward common goals.
