the long awaited..





words by neil young.
i liked the sediment in his song alot. I like the idea that people always need people. i like the idea of connecting people years apart and seeing them as just like yourself. our old men were young once and they needed someone to love them just as much as we do now. that's why i included vintage photographs and modern ones; showing how things haven't changed a whole lot. we still need to be loved and cared for personally and intimately.


i don't think my message was very clear because i got a B+. My teacher wrote: "confusing. does the old man get someone to love him?" and then i got confused that she was confused. oh well. i'll take a B.


look! it's just one sheet of 8.5x11 paper. so neat.
now you guys make one! and use the idea you told me about.
it's so cool to watch your idea turn into an actual little mini book. you can make six page cards and you can give them to you friends and your mom.

kyrie,

i'm taken with this. as soon as i started looking at it the song came on in my head.

-the type isn't from your birthday box is it?

-switch sediment to sentiment.

-pops

no pops, it originally was but then she wanted it done on the computer.i moved the letters around a bit though to make it look like it was stamped.

I'm with your mom Kyrie, She(the teacher) must not know the song..but how is that even possible? It's wonderful and I want to make one as well, but I really don't understand how you folded it to do this. I'll study the picture. You didn"t cut it right? it's all folds?

Kyrie,

I totally get it. And the photos were chosen exquisitely!

I'm glad you've found some one who loves you everyday :-D
