you know when

you're going along your life (and if you're me, reading constantly, frantically, as a job, writing and reading and writing and reading and the magic isn't there, hasn't been for a while because it's a job - the best job on earth and I love it, but it is a *job*, you know?)and then some one sends you a book and you're sitting and reading it and it hits you in the heart and suddenly you're young again - really young - devouring every word in any book because nothing anywhere is as right as words, as perfect as the magic of one person telling one story, one truth, right *now*?

*sits and cries with pure joy*

Yeah. Me too.

Thank you, Liz. You don't know how much I needed that book today.
