on words
This is a slightly meaningless ramble from a week ago that sat comfortably in my drafts read by just me. Some words from my favourite writer Jhumpa Lahiri and poet Nikki Giovanni convinced me that these are important times for words. Lahiri's message about the importance of conversation and words and Nikki's reminder on the power of words and dreams, showed me the way and helped me set this small piece free.
“Rather than interpret this malady, resist it. Stay home, connect through conversations. Let words become pathways to new spaces. Let them prevail over our isolation. Let them be the air we breathe.”
~ Jhumpa Lahiri
