These are the words they use, to speak of her. These are the views that her fellow humans held of her, and these are the hearts that she lived among. Argève was born human but never knew much humanity, whether within those around her, or within herself. When she began to learn and speak, they thought her mad. Later, they realised th

Letter to a motherDear Mummy,

Today I want to write a few words to you, before I leave you once again, for another year in a cold country two continents away from you and Daddy.

Five years ago I shouted at you, from the doorway of my room on the first floor, "I will never marry anyway, just so I can avoid your mistakes: being as poor a mother as you have been to your children!" You did not shed a tear as you stood there on the ground floor, and silently let your only daughter break your heart.

Ten years ago, in all the shops that you took me to, to buy me the brightly-coloured DMC embroidery thread I used for my tapestries, you would stand and listen with p

Thank you! It's a big compliment to hear this from you. C:

Just be careful not to buy "black henna" - it's a chemical and not real henna, and is carcinogenic and causes a lot of allergic reactions.

In the UK there are shops that sell Indian/Pakistani foods and things, and they usually have henna. Are there any in Holland?
