    About this ebook

    The rooms of a house tell stories of the good and the bad, the tragic and the joyful. All these memories, etched in the walls, reflected on broken glass, and sewn in between splintered wood, are what shape who we grow to be. Often times it takes a return to these places to remind ourselves of the truths hidden in the bitter and the beautiful.

      One Balmy Summer Evening

      Nov 18, 2019

      an elderly man called for help at my front gate. Not a panicked cry, rather a worried call, like when you’ve made a careless blunder. Such as spilling coffee on your white shirt just before an important meeting. Or putting on one brown sock and one b
