What if each action undertaken Was like opening a Pandora box Bringing with it the karma of the souls we interact with? What if, indeed, everything mattered every single day of our life, Minute details adding up or subtracting our chances to Be the One we Want?

I received a Kindle for Xmas! Exactly what I had wanted. Now there's no stopping me reading day and night! Finished: "The Age of Innocence", by Edith Wharton. The archetype of the virginal bride, the sacrifices of a decent man to marry his class and keep faithful to the covenants of his family; the passion aroused by a liberal woman: Mme Olenska, fleeing a tyrannic Russian Count husband, fleeing Europe to return to her grandmother in New York (and cousin of the virginal bride) Hypocrisy.
