Joan Didion writes, in On Keeping a Notebook, that the purpose of keeping a notebook, or a journal for that matter, isn’t because you simply want keep a personal record of things; but because you want to remember the person you were at that specific moment. we write things down on our notebook/journal/diary (whichever one of those you keep) because we want to remember. we want to remember what specific people meant to us on a particular day or hour. or minute. we want to remember our first impression of something (or of doing that something), possibly of someone, too. sometimes we think we’ll “always remember” important events: “I’ll make a mental note of that” etc etc. but in reality everything is fleeting. so Didion says write it down. keep a journal. that way, people, places, and certain events will always be there in case you ever want to come back to them sometime in the future. but also so that they don’t ever haunt you.

I owe the right to read any book I want to the heroes who fought for my country's freedom.
Extremely grateful to Ruta Sepetys for writing this unknown story and for giving Romania a voice 🙏

I wonder if there's a secret current that connects people who have lost something, but in the way that undoes your life, undoes your self, so that when you look at your face it isn't yours anymore.
