“In different hours, a man represents each of several of his ancestors, as if there were seven or eight of us rolled up in each man’s skin,—seven or eight ancestors at least, and they constitute the variety of notes for that new piece of music which his life is.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
I can’t help but think about the past and the future as I enjoy the present with my granddaughter this week.

(Don’t forget every comment on the blog in August enters your name into the drawing for either a copy of the beautiful Bella Grace magazine or my book Two Hearts: An Adoptee’s Journey Through Grief to Gratitude.)

I love that quote! I am my family’s historian, so I am often delving into the past and learning more about my ancestors. This quote really resonates with me.
I love this photo you posted today. It depicts life perfectly. Sometimes the blessings we have in front of us today are not recognized.
