The Snow Gypsy

by Lindsay Jayne Ashford

Don’t be afraid of what you don’t know. That kind of fear kills you without you realizing. Like bleeding inside.

Because every individual being, from a flower to a child, is of concern to the creator of life.

“What does it really mean, anyway, when someone says they forgive a person?

“I suppose it’s about letting it go—not letting the person off, but refusing to carry them around inside your head any longer.”
