The Journals of Ed Teal
When I was cleaning out Ed’s house I found his journals. He started keeping them when he was ten and kept right going until he died of a heart attack at age sixty.
Ed was one of my best friends. He had never mentioned the journals to me despite us knowing each other almost our entire lives. Yet I know what he wrote in them was true.
Because of this line Ed wrote every single day.
“Don’t be afraid to tell someone that you love them everyday.”
Ed did that very thing everyday, I can’t count how many times he was never ashamed to say he loved me.
Ed was right. No need to be afraid of love. Tell someone what you feel. It may be the last chance you get.
I still have Ed's journals. I’m reading them. They are beautiful.
Yours in love,
