Between Two Trailers Quotes

“Wounds and blessings come in matched pairs, at least if we're willing to wrestle them to the ground.”
― barbara brown taylor, Between Two Trailers

“This was a glorious moment for my mother, who’d won the battle all unhealthy divorcés fight: Which parent will the child ultimately choose? Because they believe that, at their core, children experiencing the sting of their parents’ separation can’t possibly choose both. Someone must be the enemy. And the Lady’s villainous traits were easily hidden compared with schizophrenia like King’s, which is, by nature, not an inconspicuous disease. Personality disorders like my mother’s—with their mania or depression or anxiety—show up as patterns over time, subtle and artful, such that you don’t realize you’re bleeding until decades later, hand to your slit throat, unable to shout in protest.”
