Today while perusing a few of the blogs that I follow, I came across a remarkable little story.  It was written by Jelena Borojevic, who is a Goodreads author and the Assistant Fiction Editor of Arcadia Press.

I had meant to just skim a few paragraphs, but the story grabbed me and I read every word.  It reminded me a little of a novel I read recently called “Soft in the head“.  It also reminded me a bit of the writings of one of my favorite authors, Fredrik Backman.

The story, about an elderly man who visits a park daily to feed the pigeons, is well-written and has themes of loneliness, friendship, and human ‘connection’.  I urge you to read it in it’s entirety. The title of this charming little story is:

“The Letter O“

Enjoy!  I’m sure that she would love to…
