I'm going through old photos now with the idea of saving the ones we want for digitization. God. You are so right about how faces and people slip from common memory faster than we think. They feel like ghosts, some of them.
I write names everywhere now (back of photos, in albums, in the scanned file names). But it’s the lost stories that haunt me even more—all of those unnamed women. Keep up the good fight!!
Judith, your way with words gives me chills. I love seeing each new post. Jill
Thank you for that—it’s so encouraging. And thank you for reading these slices of my thoughts!
I agree. I love your art but I love your writing just as much.
I agree with you, Elizabeth! Such a talented young woman.
