Sunday thoughts on loving.
By Philomène Luyindula Lasoen My first love letters were the drawings I made my dad on the loose white pages he invariably gave me as I walked into his office. I would sit quietly and contented while he worked. When I was 7, I could write of course, but it didn’t occur to me to... Continue reading
