Close the door
Every time I come home I realize how much the sound of the doors opening and closing evokes memories for me, particular ones with particular portals. My bedroom door; my parents bathroom door; the front door downstairs. Is it just me? Does everyone hold in their neurons sounds as precise as these? Sweep of wood against wood, click of metal knob, slide of latch? No taste of madeleines for me; not even my mother’s perfume is so powerful.

It’s in the genes. For years I’ve wondered if I was the only one on this planet with this type of emotional response to the sound of doors…

The web is very quiet with you gone…
Hope you both are having a marvelous time!
