BLOOD RELATIVES

"Our ancestors dwell in the attics of our brains as they do in the spiraling chains of knowledge hidden in every cell of our bodies."
~Shirley Abbott ~
 
Families are imperfect and that's what makes them interesting. All kinds of human elements collide around the table and across the years, and yet, beneath it all, no matter what, there is connection. We share something special and particular with our blood relatives that we can share with no others.
 
I honor and appreciate my family of origin, imperfect though it may be.
