“Maybe you should tell me what you really think. - If I'm honest, I thought you'd make something of yourself. Meaning? - You were never satisfied. Always wanted more. Another book. Another piece of cake. Didn't want me to say goodnight. That's all children. - You were different. You know it. You wanted to leave Washford. You left Washford. You wanted to go to a fancy school. You got into one. You married up. You decided to become a lawyer. Well, okay. What happens now? Having a baby and going to school and working is hard. I should know. But that's not my worry for you. My worry is that you *won't* do that. That you'll give up your plan. You'll just be some man's wife. Some baby's mother. That's not the Emily I know.”

“Light filtered down through the water to the bed where the frilly pearl oysters lay fastened to the rub-bly bottom, a bottom strewn with shells of broken. opened oysters. This was the bed that had raised the King of Spain to be a great power in Europe in past years, had helped to pay for his wars, and had deco-rated the churches for his soul's sake. The gray oysters with ruffles like skirts on the shells, the barnacle. crusted oysters with little bits of weed clinging to the skirts and small crabs climbing over them. An acci dent could happen to these oysters, a grain of sand could lie in the folds of muscle and irritate the flesh until in self-protection the flesh coated the grain with a layer of smooth cement. But once started, the flesh continued to coat the foreign body until it fell free in some tidal flurry or until the oyster was destroyed. For centuries men had dived down and torn the oys-ters from the beds and ripped them open, looking for the coated grains of sand. Swarms of fish lived near the bed to live near the oysters thrown back by the searching men and to nibble at the shining inner shells. But the pearls were accidents, and the finding of one was luck, a little pat on the back by God or the gods or both.”

“It takes time to build a dream. It takes time to find your way in this wild, unpredictable life. But trust the process. Trust yourself. Every delay has a lesson, every heartbreak hides a new path. And never stop looking up. Love the stars enough to wish on them. Even if your dreams feel impossible, wish anyway. Because sometimes, when the universe is listening, and your heart is open, you find yourself at the right place… at the right time… and suddenly, those stars you only dreamed of? They’re in your hands. Believe in timing. Believe in magic. Believe that your journey is unfolding exactly as it should. Don’t rush. Don’t compare. You are not late—you are in the making. Keep building, keep dreaming, and keep trusting. The universe has a way of giving the greatest rewards to those who never stop believing. — Sami Abouzid”
