ECKHART TOLLE, Stillness Speaks

The baby is my dad .On left Grandmother Pearl .right side Grandfather Ed Henley.Middle Greatgrandmother and Greatgrandfather Oliver. This is one of three photos I have of Grandfather Ed.I never met him.They divorce and he moved to Texas.

I love these flowers . They are in my backyard and I enjoy the new bloows everyday . So delicate .So poetic.Everyday life blooms anew . So everyday we are born anew with the same freshness and innocence and purity that rebirth gives.

This is a photo of my Grandmother Pearl I just found . I love it . The man behind her is my Grandfather Ed Henley only one of two pictures I have of him.The little girl in front is my grandmothers sister Gladys Oliver. There is a inner strength in my grandmother's image that I know she had.She was the glue in this family.
