looking at the ink bottle, pens and white paper, I decided that the act of

writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.

Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things

for my sister and brothe匚"But the desk/9 she said again, "is for

I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me;

talks between mother and daughter.

They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was "too
