Embossed
Stopped by this little store near my house to buy (a bag of pure) water.
The owner also stocks greeting cards - birthday cards and such - remember those?
Remember the pure pleasure of the thick card paper and embossed pink flowers and sparkly lettering on the front of the card, to start with?
The preferably-not-icky poetry inside.
Cards were Hallmark or budget or something nice-and-in-between;
or (starting in the late nineties) sometimes afrocentric and handmade.
Real cards were just such a great idea, before e-cards, before no-cards.
I'll have to find an excuse to give a card again sometime.

###Three Sisters, novel #1 here###
P.S. To everyone who loves me (yeah, you), thank you for loving me.

My testimony on how I became an Illuminati member. I want to notify the people who want to join the great illuminate, on how I was helped by a great Illuminati member. His name is Mr Felix. Helping me to regain my life from the stage of death. after being sacked for about 5 years and six months. After being scammed by so many members of the Illuminati. I have been hopeless, financially down throughout those years. But one day, as I was browsing through the Internet, I came across the post of the Great Illuminati member, Mr Felix, saying you can be famous, rich and successful in life by been a member of the great Illuminati, immediately I contacted and I explained everything to him and he recommended me and helped and I pay for the membership registration form which will be used to initiate me, and I was initiated to the great Illuminati new world order. Afterwards they gave me all the guidelines and told me that all new members are rewarded with the sum of $1,000,000 US Dollars cash after initiation. With the help of Mr Felix. I was initiated fully as a complete Illuminati member. If you have failed into scammers before, or this is your first time looking for someone to help you become a member, my advice for you is to give Mr Felix a try. He is your best chance of becoming what you wish for your future life, Contact him Email: illuminatiworld521@gmail.com

(NO MEMBERSHIP FEE TO JOIN ILLUMINATI), I am giving a testimony on how i became rich and famous today… i was deeply strangled up by poverty and i had no body to help me, and also i searched for help from different corners but to no avail… I see people around me getting rich but to me i was so ashamed of my self so i met a man on my way he was very rich and he was a doctor so he told me something and i think over it through out the day so the next day i looked up and i keep repeating what he said to me.” if you want to get rich quick and be famous” you need to cross your heart and do what is in your mind so i tried all i could in other for me to do as he said so later on i told my fellow friend about this same thing then my friend was interested in my suggestions so i decided to look in the internet and i found a number of an agent Jackson +1(409)2993890 and we decided to contact them and fortunately we did as them instruct us to do and later, them told us to get some requirements and all the rest… so this initiation took us just a week and later on the great Illuminati gave us $7,000,000.00 to start up our lives…. and now am testifying that if in any case you want to join any great Illuminati all you need to do is for you to contact him on emial illuminatiriches50085@gmail.com or on whatsapp number +1(409)2993890.

I want to share with you my testimony of how I joined this great organization of the NEW WORLD ORDER, really I was so poor in my life that I was almost close to death, i tried many times to join but all was in vain, whereupon I was facing fake people who were claiming to be agents . They ate my money without helping me out there. I totally lost hope but because i was interested and focused on my dream, I continued trying there I meet another person who told me he will help me out still i didn't trust him at all because of the first pain i passed through, he still also asked me to send him money there i got scared but with time he sent me his membership id card,trust in him little and i accepted to send him money, but what amazed me is that immediately after sending him money for initiation items, i got initiated within 2hour onlines and i receive my $1,000,000 directly to my account there i trusted him more and he is the only agent i trust because he helped me seriously. So my friend, if you want to join contact him through whatsapp +2348180828544.
