Snail Mail + Bono

My desk is littered with envelopes and stamps and addresses of friends who are too far away to hug. And everyone loves letters.

I was born,
I was born to sing for you.
I didn't have a choice but to lift you up,
And sing whatever song you wanted me to.
I give you back my voice from the womb
My first cry, it was a joyful noise.
"Magnificient" - U2

So the combination of loved ones + uplifting music is really working right now.

  1. When did you completely change your blog?

  2. I like the layout - it reminds me of the song that goes "All who are thirsty, All who are weak." But, snail mail is special because it's something tangible unlike e-mail and I hope you will e-mail me your address (because I have no idea if you ever check your gmail) so that I can send you a postcard from Boston. <3
