i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.

This came today; 1928 deco-era letter press pamphlet cover for an event that used to be held at the Univ. I work for. Verified with Univ. archives & a solid provenance. Will be framed & hung in my office. Came packaged in this dutch(?) language children’s book. Historic rainbow action for my office
