“Paris is a good place to mourn,” @taffyakner writes in @nytimestravel. “It takes itself very seriously in a way that is sometimes tedious when you are young and full of the future, but is perfect when you are entering middle age and walking down cobblestone streets and missing someone you loved very much, particularly if that someone lived there.” Not in the mood to laugh? Paris understands. Need a place to remind yourself that everything ends? Paris is that place. “Paris assures you that you are mortal, here for a blink of time, that the world will barely register your existence before you are gone,” @taffyakner continues. “This is the existential dread of Paris, and this is also the way that Paris sets you free.” She traveled to the French capital a year after her uncle Richard, who’d live there, died. She was there to see his wife and meet his son, and because “there was no real space in my life for me to mourn him,” she writes. “I should have found a way to come sooner. I thought I’d had more time. I thought that adulthood would make me into someone who knew things about my family, but you have to do hard work to know people. You have to look at someone until you truly know him.” Visit the link in our profile to read more — and to see more photos of #Paris by @alex_cretey_systermans.
