today I told someone that it's always darkest before the dawn, that it is everything before now that has brought him here, that one day his hard work will bring him to that place of his dreams whose name he does not know (even if he thinks he does).

today he told me that I'm on the other side of that dark, that I'm shining. that when he graduates

Do let me know if any mail arrives from me...

Oh yes, I'm ever so sorry, the card made it safely here. Thank you so much! A card for you, on the other hand, is on my desk, waiting for me to be free of the chains of essay-writing which should happen quite shortly. My apologies; it's my last full semester at the university so the past weeks have been rather insane. (I just try to keep thinking about the German Christmas markets looming in my future...)

Glad you received it! I'll certainly look forward to your card! And I hope Christmas goes well for you!

hey, just wanted to let you know that there's a card that was written in Glasgow, travelled through London and was sent from Bremen headed your way.

Thank you! And there may be one waiting for you when you get back to Scotland!
