However, they still exist to carry on weaving activities, to family income, as well as to kill boredom, waiting for the husband to return from the sea, and without realizing it, it turns out weaving as maintaining their culture which is inherited from parents, grandmothers, and predecessors decades ago. They were also very loyal to their husbands, and because of that they never sounded an affair, they never divorced even though they were left behind long ago by husbands who sailed. (2) The life of the Weaver family in Bira is strongly influenced by cultural values which are reflected in their views on the meaning and principle of life, the meaning, and principle of work and creation, the meaning of the relationship with nature and the meaning of living relationships with fellow human beings. They view life as part of their service; they do not dream much to see life as an attempt to gain a position. Work is for life, not to achieve position and life solely for charity and devoted. The nature according to them can be conquered to be used for the life of mankind. They assume that generally humans are good and that is why cooperation is needed.
