'nothing but the beautiful night and memories of you'






[i have reembarked on transcribing the letters my grandmother wrote to my grandfather when he was stationed in china in the 1940s. i am continually struck by the resemblance of thoughts, words, and feelings of a twenty-something of that era with those of a twenty-something of this era. though my grandmother died when i was ten, i am still able to get to know her. for that i am endlessly grateful.]

  1. That's amazing and wonderful and blows my hair back.

    And I got your birthday card (Thank you!). It's a little wrinkly from the downpour, which I like. It's proof of that card's long and arduous journey!
