Congratulations on your retirement! I never had a career, just a succession of unexpected happenings along the way, but it means there's a few weird stories to recount. I very much look forward to reading some of yours!

I'm a latecomer to this, but it's such a beautiful piece, Lena. The last line is perfect. This one will stay with me.
