Comments on: Go Team Wales – Day Four https://globalspin.com/2006/02/go-team-wales-day-four/ a glimpse into the tiny mind of Chris Radcliff Sat, 01 May 2010 03:53:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.8 By: Deana https://globalspin.com/2006/02/go-team-wales-day-four/comment-page-1/#comment-950 Wed, 15 Feb 2006 04:57:11 +0000 http://globalspin.com/wp/2006/02/14/712/#comment-950 I agree with Deb. Your writing is really engaging and a pleasure to read. Also, you and I are so opposite about things. Not in a bad way. Just in a different way. First, I can’t see the mistake, and I really, really looked. Second, I would probably end up treasuring it as evidence that the sock was really made by hand.

It’s reminding me of a section of the novel Chocolat that resonated with me: “I envy the table its scars, the scorch marks caused by the hot bread tins. I envy its calm sense of time, and I wish I could say: I did this five years ago. I made this mark, this ring caused by a wet coffee cup, this cigarette burn, this ladder of cuts againt the wood’s coarse grain. This is where Anouk carved her initials, the year she was six years old, this secret place behind the table leg. I did this on a warm day seven summers ago with the carving knife.”

I like imperfections a lot. But I admire your dedication and ability to restore peace to yourself.

Also, you write beautifully; please keep doing so.
