In troubled times it’s important to remind oneself: the world is full of love. Nothing can obliterate love.

It's hard to read this letter with dry eyes. Make that impossible. TY.

A beautiful tribute to the power of love, and that postscript was the chef's kiss on the whole thing!

I love my husband more today than all the years past, and my husband is dead. Such a beautiful, beautiful love letter he wrote.

What a scathingly raw love letter. The pain in each word. The declarations of love and aloneness are heartbreaking. This letter opens up the portion of this scientific genius to illustrate his humanity, warmth, and desperate loss.

I love PS's (please pardon the clumsy apostrophe). This PS is outstanding. It made me smile. A smile at the end of such a heartfelt letter feels like a cherry on top—or, in this case, at the bottom.
