Off the Deep End

by Lucinda Berry

Maybe being treated like an animal turns you into one. Has anyone ever thought of that?

I’ve never understood people’s obsession with the limelight. People who shine from within don’t need a spotlight.

“I think grief makes people do crazy things.”

It happens almost automatically when you’ve got nothing to lose. There’s an incredible freedom in having nothing left to lose.

I hated the way they allowed kids to cut themselves off from the real world. The social isolation they allowed them to create. Who wouldn’t want to live in a video game world in comparison to the real one? That’s why they were so dangerous.

Sometimes life gives you a second chance at love because you weren’t ready for it the first time.
