more than anything else

Dear K,

One conflict? I have a thousand hopes and dreams for my life.

I want everything for my life. I want to do great things, and I want to do very small things. I want to live so well that they make statues of me in foreign cities, and I want to have legendary vices and habits. I have ambitions that cannot be met in one lifetime, but I don't want to live forever.

I'm afraid of a lot of things. But my biggest fear is forgetting. I feel things slipping from me some days, and other days the memories tip toe away without me noticing.

Will you help me remember?

More than anything else,

K
