While I wa...Bee - I read this with rapt attention. While I wandered through my husband's birthplace's cemetery today in the heartland of the USA, and reading the headstones of relatives, it strikes me of the women and the children who are often only mentioned on cold stones, and otherwise forgotten. Lots of infants who died, lots of children given birth to and life, and the closeness to the land which was sacred. The hawks were screeching all around - the message of balance being screamed out between the masculine and the feminine - for the world today.<br />I will look for the family bible on my husband's side, he too an only child, and read the stories when I return home.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03529300529803771717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890866550699482561.post-52379438935374806242011-11-09T21:32:00.237-04:002011-11-09T21:32:00.237-04:00Thank you Carrie.Thank you Carrie.The Blog of Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00650938872732748697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890866550699482561.post-21244713548467065692011-11-09T20:55:52.910-04:002011-11-09T20:55:52.910-04:00Bee this is a beautiful write!!!!Bee this is a beautiful write!!!!Carrie Van Hornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11715648073882529202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890866550699482561.post-42773836419541654502011-11-08T22:20:38.580-04:002011-11-08T22:20:38.580-04:00Thank you Mimi - sad - yes.

My problem is that when I do eventually get down to it, my mind runs wild!<br /><br /><br />Thank you Christopher - if it did that for you I managed to achieve a little of what I set out to do.<br /><br />Hank I am a member of Genes but have never really followed through - never had the time!<br /><br />Thank you thingy, Tumblewords and Isobel for the compliments. Much appreciated coming from such powerful writers as yourselves.<br /><br />Thank you Helen. It's been coming for a while and I sigh - retrograde step as far as I'm concerned. We can now see the influence this Pope had on the last.<br /><br />Delving is good Brian - provided one's not shocked or surprised by the skeletons in the cupboards!!<br /><br />Thank you Lyn - actually I do dream and not always of pleasant things. I did a blog some time ago "I Dream dead People'. <br /><br />I wonder if some ancestors want to be 'kept alive' Roy. It's living descendants who want to keep the cupboards closed!<br /><br />Thank you Nicholas - coming from you, I'm honoured.<br /><br />I don't have photos anymore Lena. they were all lost in a family disaster which broke my heart.<br /><br />Thank you everyone. This story is a work of fiction based on fact. The only characters who are real are my father, Dorothy, Edward, my grandparents, my grandfather's brother and me. Everything surrounding the family bible in the early part of the story is true but I was never able to get it back into my side of the family.<br /><br />The dreams, the characters in the dreams?

I would love to learn of such a bible in my family.
