Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.
C. S. Lewis
The individual wheat-paster or tagger on the streets may not intend it, but they’re writing an open diary, an invitation to conversation, to tell a story. As we continue to record and examine the stories that are written on the street, we get some powerful insights regularly. How Street Artists express the topic of love is as individual as it is universal.
This is a love letter to the BSA readers who have shown real support to us along the way and with it comes our continued promise to love you more every day.
