adventures of mascarah.
I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.
Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.
A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

The above is the inside inscription in a copy of Beach Music, a sad and moving book by Pat Conroy, a gift to my father from one of his patients. I love reading (and rereading) this inscription. There are many like it that he’s received over the years but this one (spelling errors and all) has always held a place in my heart. My dad is the kind of person who inspires this type of gratitude and love in all that he does. He’s a truly amazing person. He is my hero.
The inscription reads:
I give this book to you because its so much part of myself, but your kindness from your heart and your knowledge that you contain and hard work — to me it makes you my HERO (in real life…)
From human being to human being or from patient to doctor, may god bless your every need and struggle in this life. When our time has passed - I will greet you in heaven and I will say I love you.
Happy Xmas year 1996
Mike
You are a great doctor!!
