Mckenzie! Yes, I got a tattoo! Me, Kari, and Jennifer went last Monday! I am so excited to see you and for you to see it! YOU COME HOME SO SOON!!!!!!!!
this is funny because i just wrote to you probably at precisely the same time you were writing to me. though i can’t believe you did that without me! i forgive you though only because i haven’t seen you in months and miss you so very much.
“Life is a question of nerves, and fibres, and slowly built-up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams. You may fancy yourself safe and think yourself strong. But a chance tone of colour in a room or a morning sky, a particular perfume that you had once loved and that brings subtle memories with it, a line from a forgotten poem that you had come across again, a cadence from a piece of music that you had ceased to play… I tell you, that it is on things like these that our lives depend.”
—Oscar Wilde (The Picture of Dorian Gray)
