"We are each of us angels with only one wing,
to fly we need only embrace each other."
~Jessamyn West
In 1817 Jane Austen died. But, the children she
left behind have given great comfort, joy and laughter.
"Pride and Prejudice", "Emma", "Persuasion"; to
name a few of the dears.
Thank you, Jane.
The unsinkable Molly Brown was born this day in
1867. The Titanic sank but, Molly did not.
The little known writer Jessamyn West was born this
day in 1902. See quote above.
Romantic poet Rose Hartwick Throrpe was born this day;
leaving us such poems as "Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight"
Very, very romantic.
My 13-year old daughter just finished "Pride and Prejudice". She loved it, the themes are timeless.
