I Wait by Daniel Green

‘I wait’ tells the story of resigning to the fact that ‘this is how life is’. It’s not bad, it’s not good, it just is. Looking back at that time, I wouldn’t trade it, not for the world. I’m happy for it. It means my three daughters’ never have to wait. Daniel Green

This ten word story was typed on a manual Royal De Luxe typewriter c. 1950’s. Let’s call her, Betty.
