2 greatly dislike this life; I am not unhappy - except that the time I spend here is so many precious hours and days and months wasted. Great Scott, I didn't mean to carry on like that but once in a while it's so restful to lay my head on your shoulder even by mail, and relax ... give up for a minute or two. You know there's a great relief in surrender. I suppose it's one of God's ways of compensating for failure. Must close now. I wrote this in 3 installments today and want it to go to you tonight. So good night and love from B.J
