“I ask Mom if love ever made her feel alone. If it ever made her feel like she was starving in a room full of food.
She laughs. 'Only every day.' She leans over to me, across the gap between us, so that the side of her head touches mine....She whispers something, but I can't hear the words.
'I never thought I'd be the type of person who would do that to someone,' I say. 'Now it's exactly what I am. Forever.'
Mom nods. 'It's always like that.'
'What do you mean?' I ask.
'Whenever I've made a choice in my life, a real choice...I can always feel the change, after I choose. The better versions of myself, moving just out of reach.'
It's exactly what I think. So there's nothing to say....
'I'm always losing better versions of myself,' she says. 'I don't know. You just have to keep trying.'
[Kaui, in conversation with her mother Malia]”
