passage



i pack J1 his final lunch for high school. one cheese and ham sandwich, one dessert sandwich, one fruit and some energy bars in a brown bag for four years can get insipid.

what i am grateful for is the four years which allow J1 to complete one educational phase in the same country. there are gifts that you do not believe you will be given until you hold them in your hands. this is one of them.

the closing of a chapter, & the beginning of a new one...that single first line evoked much empathy...
