he texted :  :  Hey, babe! Im engrossed in Netflix’s The Professor and the Madman -- Mel Gibson Sean Penn – the creation of The Oxford English Dictionary   

 :  :  Ooooh – that sounds completely up your alley!

 :  :  Ohshit  up and around and down and shotthrough my alley – a very beautiful story, though I am unsurprised . . words are paint, they are razors, bats, they are gentle caresses . .. they are our tongues, our fingers, our nerves

 :  :  Beautifully said, Dad…

 :  :  I am moved, it seems I’m easily moved these days, sensitive, walking on glass . . . however, I am aware of every step, love

 :  :  How are you? I love you and miss you…

 :  :  Goodness, I love you and miss you so very much

 :  :  Walking on glass – did you have that sensation before?

 :  :  I’ve been walking on glass since Aniela died . ..  this is my grief; I am aware of its steps . . .  I remember my steps when Mom died

 :  :  Oh – I see – that makes sense.

 :  :  I am sorry for your pain, though I think how very fortunate we are to have shared in Aniela’s life, and will celebrate it until we can no longer – we will tell her stories and keep her alive; not that her fire can ever be wetted, quelled . . . .  I am eternally grateful for Aniela and for you – without sounding prickish, I must say Mom and I knocked it out of the park when you two were born

 :  :  Again – beautifully said.

 :  :  Let’s just admit we’re beautiful, eh?

 :  :  I’m so very thankful that you guys gave her to me as my sister. She was quite the teacher.

 :  :  I believe Aniela too would thank Mom and I for gracing her with you, her “little” sisterHA

 :  :  Agreed.

 :  :  We could be accused of being Vain – emailing you an appropriate song, love

 :  :  Haha – Carly Simon?

 :  :  Hahaha  you know it!
