"Capacious hearts find the love that our nation denied [the marginalized many]" ~ Love in the Library, Author's Note
Enjoying our time together ❤️ on a not so random
Friday afternoon off
George and Tama are [Maggie Tokuda-Hall's]maternal grandparents. They had five children, including [her] mother. They truly did meet in Minidoka, a Japanese incareraction camp in Idaho. Tama was the camp librarian. Their first son, Floyd was born there... the dialogue [of Love in the Library] is imagined, save for one line: "The miracle is in all us." Those were Tama's exact words, taken from her journal." ~ Love in the Library, Author's Note
"Improbable Joy" ~ Love in the Library, Author's Note
Kristen read this poem 8/16/2016: "When I come to the end of the road /And the sun has set for me / I want no rites in the gloom-filled room / Why cry for a soul set free / Miss me a little but not too long / And not with your head bowed low / Remember the love that we once shared / Miss me but let me go / For this is a journey that we all must take / And each must go alone / It's all a part of the Master's plan / A step on the road to home / When you are lonely and sick of heart / Go with friends we know / And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds / Miss me but let me go!"

Rapacious - excessively grasping or covetous from a 8/3/2011 blog post quote by Clyde Edgerton about Bruce Springsteen and Clarence Clemmons. He said: "It’s tough not to sentimentalize their meeting now, but to do so is to miss the point of what their friendship was all about: Rock ‘n’ roll at its most raucous, rapacious, and redemptive—the wild and innocent howl of two men who wanted everything and were going to play their guts out until they got it, and, in the process, teach a world riven by racism a thing or two about friendship transcending race." source

Thought about: "the pain, the Trauma, and the deaths that resulted from ...the deeply American Traditon of racism... The same cruelty that carved reservations out of stolen, sovereign land, that paved the Trail of Tears." ~ Love in the Library, Author's Note
