A book

Today I bought a book I read back in high school, in fact my buddy Jay and I both stole our copies from school, it was called the shipping news, a good book, i remember I lent this book to a friend back when i was in my 20’s. She sadly passed away, she was a great person and now so many years later I am sitting here wondering what happened to that copy of the book, whom may of got it, inherited it, bought in a used book store? What scribbles it may have, dog earred pages. Tears.

How our lives become interconnected baffles my mind and I wish more people could see these connections. We are different yet the same. I may not be able to understand your journey. But I do want to hear it.
