Canadian Connections/Conexión de Canada

The migratory book you send me has left me and I'm finally responding to your question. The book has now traveled from Ontario to one of the western provices of Canada...Alberta. It's in good hands! Thank you for the opportunity to take part in this project and for your patience in waiting to hear from me.

what connects us?

a need to see ourselves
reflected in each
other

as a way to measure
distance on this
journey....

for comfort
and
acknowledgement

and a need to be one....

Response from Long Beach, CA/Respuesta de Long Beach, CA

I think what connects us is entertainment because no matter what the subject, we are all connected to each other by what we like. For example, reading a book. We enjoy reading and that connects our thoughts with the writer, the maker of the book, the maker of the fonts used in the book, the designer of the book jacket, etc. Another is watching a movie. When we watch a movie we also connect with the creators of the movie along with the people we watch it with. Just a favorite pastime like fishing can connect a father with his children. Therefore, through having fun, we connect with each other.

I really enjoyed the book you made. I received the book from Cathy Chambers who works at the Millard Sheets Library at Otis College of Art and Design in LA. I'm sending the book to Georgia to my mother-in-law whom I think would appreciate it very much.

Take care and happy new year!
