    maybe a historical tale, lets say......a story that takes place in 16th century Romania?

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    It was just a thought...I don't think he's interested in that time and place and the who and what.

    Awake now that I received a text message and it woke me up.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    I've fulfilled all obligations.
    I've sent everyone on my friends list a Valentines Day greeting.
