my best friend grace and I write letters to eachother; one a week, with a challenge for the other person (and a picture of assorted wildlife taped to the back, naturally). concluding paragraph from the latest letter-installment:

“Here’s a funny little something from Silas Marner: “they would be obliged to ‘run away’—a course as dark and dubious as a balloon journey.” Funny, I never considered a “balloon journey” to be dark and dangerous. You’re te best…I want to run away with you. Eat crackers, hug everyone and DREAM…YOU’RE GOING TO AFRICA! Loving you madly, Grace.”

If that isn’t the best way to end a letter, I don’t know what is.

And that’s the basic gist of what I want to do with my life: eat crackers, hug everyone, dream big.
