“That's the one thing about being blind: you see people as they really are.”
Marci Lyn Curtis, The One Thing

Marci Lyn Curtis, The One Thing

“I opened my mouth to reply, but then closed it again. Talking to Mom was a bit like trying to fold a fitted sheet: no matter how hard you try, it always ends up a lumpy, crooked mess. So why even bother? (Page 120)”
Marci Lyn Curtis, The One Thing

Leila Sales, This Song Will Save Your Life

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?”
Mary Oliver

“Sometimes you make choices in life and sometimes choices make you.”
Gayle Forman, If I Stay

C. JoyBell C.
