And I thought I had gotten rid of them all until I found my 'Little Prince' notebook with a few scribbles in it. The thing is I haven't really changed. I'm still incredibly melancholic, sometimes disastrously so. And I often let my emotions run free when no one is around to hem me in. Here are the few I uncovered. What laughable attempts.

The first day

Back from Singapore. I saw a loved one for the last time. She passed on her birthday. 95 years. An amazing woman.
One day I will write about her life. Her beauty. Her love. Her strength. Her incredible ability to remember numbers and people. Her enjoyment of the cold yet giving of warmth.

Thanks fir your comment. I admire your courage in writing what you believe and fore-warning nay-Sayers (who are everywhere), it's great to disarm those who choose to aim at everything. the great thing about philosophy, is that everyone's beliefs are "right". Live your life unapologetically with courage, the alternative is so unappealing!

Me too! I can claim no credit whatsover for them - they are the work of the very talented art department at Random House. But I especially love the new one!
Love the title of your blog, and will look forward to checking it out when I have a quiet moment.

Blessing to you!
