Listening to my mother, Vira, narrate her childhood growing up as an orphan in rural Arkansas fills me with a mix of emotions. Her stories reflect resilience, hope, and profound simplicity.

The threads of our lives are linked to the past,

As old memories are retold they continue to last,

A generational span with a gentle grasp,

Melds to our being like a hard metal cast.

Lou (Loucrecia Clarenda (Fuller) Harris - 1863-1928)
