Anne: You can leave out the ‘probably’.

i am begging if you have a kindle or use an ereader or read books online in any kind of way please go on libby and register with your local library (if you don’t have a library card, what a good excuse to see if you can sign up online for one or even take a trip!) to see their digital collection. i made a resolution to not buy as many books as i have these past few years and also to support my library more and it was so easy and i’ve already borrowed one book and have another on hold in like ten minutes.

Even with my last breath I will speak only of my love for you yet I only hope that you feel the same.'

"For the liveliness of your mind, I did.
