Album

An album holds gathered memories and faces, and in dreams it often speaks to friendship, belonging, and the people we keep close. To look through one can stir warmth, or anticipation of a new bond arriving. The dream tends to ask whom we are holding in our pages, and what connections we are turning toward.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
