* Charles Mayer: oui, Valerie!!! blessed angel, your face is full of wrinkles now and i kiss it with dignity, respect, the purest of love, the reverence of lived time. your face in all its bumps scrapes and bruises represents your pain and hardship. your face is the DELICATE SPECIAL JOURNEY we went on together, only the two of us know. you're like a sister to me!!!
