Last year, we received four Christmas cards, and two of them were commercial advertisements. I miss getting letters and cards in the mail.

“There is a kind of sadness that comes from knowing too much, from seeing the world as it truly is. It is the sadness of understanding that life is not a grand adventure, but a series of small, insignificant moments, that love is not a fairy tale, but a fragile, fleeting emotion, that happiness is not a permanent state, but a rare, fleeting glimpse of something we can never hold onto. And in that understanding, there is a profound loneliness, a sense of being cut off from the world, from other people, from oneself.”
Virginia Woolf

First thing in the morning, on my daily quest to find laughter to set the mood for the rest of my day, I often find unexpected treasures, and many of them make me cry happy tears.
