…. Books were more fun and interesting than people to me too at first. But, well, people wrote books. So the magic behind those lies in all of us. You said people run and books stay. But books stay because you own them. I could never own a person, and there’s a charm in that.
… Books have wonderful surprises, but they are archived. I’m not suggesting you go bungee jumping tomorrow, but I do hope Carmel that you don’t give up on the surprises in life that have yet been archived. They’re outside your room, away from your screen, and between you and your future house & library. And although you can’t pick and choose them as specifically as you can with books, there isn’t anything in your letter that convinces me life won’t know how to love you back. Adventures appear in all directions. Thank you for writing us.
Love you Liy.
