We don't chose our family, today's birthday boy included. Bishop Robert Baron describes Jesus Christ 's lineage as dysfunctional, with descendants like a Moabite foreigner, Ruth and a prostitute, Rahab. Going further back, Cain killed his brother Abel, Jacob stole his elder brother Esau's birthright, Joseph was sold to slavery by his brothers, and David killed the husband of the woman he fancied. Even his cousin of priestly parentage, chose to go to the desert and there preach the evils of their day.
We see all shades of these in mediation.
