Numbers & Codes

"In solitude we give passionate attention to our lives, to our memories, to the details around us."

-Virginia Woolf

My 94-year-old grandma can remember every phone number and every address she's ever had.  She remembers that it was November the 11th 1940 when there was a snowstorm that kept she and her new hubby snowed-in for four days.  She recites lenghty Shakespearean sonnets, remembers the price of a can of tuna during the Depression, and can recall her teachers' names from gradeschool...

Lost

"I am circling around God, around the ancient tower, and I have been circling for a thousand years, and I still don't know if I am a falcon, or a storm, or a great song."
