71
72
Nothing is old, nothing is new, save the light of grace underneath which beats a human heart. The way of feeling, of understanding, of loving; the way of seeing the country, the faces that your father saw, that your mother knew. The rest is chimerical.

Maybe I didn’t get new skates, but I got used skates. I made it to the national championships in used skates that were custom-made for another girl. I still have those skates.

130
I do not want to be a robot, a cog in society who answers ‘yes‘ because ‘yes’ is considered the appropriate answer. Neither do I want to be a protestor. I just want to seek out what lies underneath the veils of politeness and programming that I’ve been given as a person in this society.

I love my city and I feel like the majority of the people that are in the city are people from other cities.
