Remember, remember

Memories are getting shorter, I guess. Halloween has taken over our British celebration of Bonfire Night, the one I remember from childhood, when after dark on November 5 we lit bonfires in our back gardens (I can still smell and taste the charred mouth-searing baked potatoes!). We had our own clutch of fireworks: rockets stuck in milk bottles, catherine wheels pinned to the garden fence, sparkler Read more of this blog post »

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”
― Anais Nin
