My smile may benefit you more than my quick retelling with repetitions of points of how it appeared there…and that is why I love writing and painting; same idea of direct enjoyment, more complex, yet give the rewards of simplicity and clarity… I will paint tomorrow. 🎨Do I have a smile now? No. But all I need to know is that it all passes, even this, and your own smile is truly good, and a semi-colon ; has the lightness of touch and continuation to return my peace and affection, which I include for tomorrow or another day.
