Many years ago, my sister bought me a glass paperweight with the word “Tomorrow” engraved on it. Its purpose, I think, was to keep ready all your papers for the next day’s work, but I always treated it as a statement (of intent? Hope? Mystery?) and stood it up somewhere where it would get attention. I remember asking her to hold it by the edges so that it wouldn’t get fingerprints all over it, in response to which she maliciously did the opposite. But if that paperweight represents tomorrow, then what I really want more than anything is for her, and all of you, to have your fingerprints all over it. xx
