I got my official transcript today. I can’t believe four years of my life can be summed up on three pieces of paper. To me it’s still amazing how much we can encapsulate, years, decades, centuries, eras, eons, using mere scratches and splashes of ink on paper.
Words are so powerful. They create pictures, feelings, embody impossible, intangible ideas. It’s almost as if they are a world, a dimension all their own. These great tapestries of sound and syllable. (Sorry for the metaphysical musing. I’m reading a book called The Map of Time by Felix J. Palma.)
But instead of pondering this eternal mystery, I really need to get back to my thank you cards. XD I may run out of stamps.
(I was working on this when that huge storm rolled in last night. We’re fine here, but I hope everyone else is okay and their power turns back on soon.)
