She'll Learn's concept is universal. While people limit their thoughts around their own blood relationships, it is universal love that unites people with the strong thread of unseen intimacy.

"Arjunan heard the determination in Appu’s voice and noticed Appu’s hair had greyed since he was stabbed. Although he is not that strong, he will act as he says, Arjunan thought. Appu has no one except me and I have no one except him. How surprisingly life brings people together. Many related by blood and birth do not have this kind of intimacy and love. We are not same blood, but our kinship is strong. Without him, how lonely I would be."
