Oh, Val.
1:48:26
You know...
1:48:28
we used to have a little fig tree...
1:48:31
between the house and the orchard.
1:48:35
It never bore any fruit.
We said it was barren.
1:48:40
But one morning in spring,
I discovered a small green fig on that tree.
1:48:46
It seemed such a wonderful thing
for the little fig tree to bear...
1:48:50
that it called for a celebration.
1:48:54
I ran to a closet of Christmas ornaments,
I took them out.
1:48:58
Glass bells, glass birds,
and icicles, and tinsel.
1:49:02
And I hung the little fig tree with them...
1:49:07
because it won the battle...
1:49:09
and it would bear.
1:49:16
Oh, Val, unpack the box
of Christmas ornaments...
1:49:21
and put them on me.
1:49:22
Glass bells, glass birds, and icicles...
1:49:26
and tinsel. Put them on me, Val!
1:49:41
I'm celebrating...
1:49:51
my life beginning again.
