The opening with the Arundhati Roy quote about the big things lurking, left unsaid. That had me and was quite satisfying to see. She's one of my favourite writers- even though I don't think I have read her enough and like you find myself carrying some books around but just not opening them.

Thanks for giving a voice to some of the thoughts (big things) I have long harboured but left unsaid.

The verdant green of jealousy oozing from my every pore for you haven made it back to the motherland makes me a little ashamed. Happy for you though. Congratulations again on your wedding and its really wonderful theme.

I cannot wait to feel the earth of the homeland beneath my feet. To smell the air some of it no doubt pungent but others resplendent with flavour and spices and carefree joy. Soon.

Happy Friday.
