It is chock full of intelligence and history and thinking and reminicsences. She had the forethought to put her thinking down for us to ponder. What a treasure that is and gift to us, who never even met her. Adding to the beauty of the thoughtful landscape is real progress. Memories that lead to life, even if some of them are ugly, should not be dispised.
Aunt Pauline lived in a far more difficult day than today is and she found time to read and comment on the current events and great writers of her day. That's probably because she didn't have children, is what I always say.
When you have a quiver like me your life is filled with so many mindless tasks and so much squabble negotiations that there is only time to pick up the scraps of your mind at the end of the day. Thank God for great thinkers who we can follow into mental improvement.
