Quote by Amanda Grace

“But even when I stop crying, even when we fall asleep and I'm nestled in his arms, this will leave another scar. No one will see it. No one will know. But it will be there. And eventually all the scars will have scars and that is all I will be, one big scar of a love gone wrong.”

“Baby Cooper and Aaron running around causing trouble,” Dad said, setting an album on Lark’s lap. “Aaron was a very good baby. Didn’t cry at all. Not once.” When I laughed, Dad gave me a wink. “Here was our boy at three months.” Lark looked at the picture and laughed. Knowing exactly what she thought was so funny, I explained, “They thought they were adopting a girl, so I wore pink those first few months.” “Babies grow so fast at that age,” Mom said. “No reason to waste money on new clothes when he wouldn’t know the difference.” Lark laughed at this comment and kept laughing until the pictures reached when I was three. Her eyes moistened and again I was the one to explain. “Lark’s little brother died around that age.” As Mom and Dad descended on her with hugs, I never saw my girl look so startled. Life was different for her now. No longer was she struggling to survive in a dysfunctional family of revolving fathers and a cold mother. Now, she was a Barnes and we were fully functional and only slightly on the weird side. “You have curls,” she cooed, running her finger over a picture of me at five. “I loved those curls,” Mom said. “She put barrettes in those curls,” I muttered, standing behind the three of them as they looked through the album. Ignoring my parents’ laughter, I continued, “I begged to have my hair shaved short. Once it was, I never looked back.”

“નિરક્ષર પાસે રહેવાથી જ્ઞાનકોશનું મહત્વ ઘટતું નથી. કેટલાક લોકોને દરેકની કિંમત ખબર હોય છે, પણ મૂલ્ય ખબર નથી હોતું. જો કોઈ તમને વાંચી કે સમજી નથી શકતું, તો એ એમની નિરક્ષરતા છે. એમના ‘કલર બ્લાઇન્ડ’ હોવાથી આપણા રંગો ઓછા નથી થવાના. જો કોઈ આપણી પ્રતિભા, સારપ, કે સફળતાની કદર નથી કરતું, તો એની ફરિયાદ શું કરવાની ? કોઈની પ્રશંસા, કદર, કે સમર્થનનું મહોતાજ હોય, એવું તેજ શું કામનું ? જેઓ ઈર્ષા, અજ્ઞાન, કે પૂર્વગ્રહોથી બળતા હોય, તેમને દીવાનો પ્રકાશ પણ દઝાડશે જ. એમની ચિંતા કર્યા વગર, ચમક્યા કરો.”
