"We used to think...when I was an unsifted girl...that words were weak and cheap. Now I don't know of anything so mighty." -Emily Dickinson

"Not to keep, but to keep watch..."
29 January 2022: Finished Lost & Found today, on a brutally cold walk through my neighborhood. It would, of course, be too much to ask a book to fix this mixture of despair, wonder, and a kind of longing that has been haunting me on and off. But the book gives clarity. And Schultz reveals the beauty and wonder at the heart of grief and loss. So we push on and endure. What else can we do? Doing that with a greater sense of connection and something like purpose? What a gift of a book for helping us do that even a bit more.
