Quote by Alyssa Wees

“But Hope was terrible too,” Mother said, “because it made you believe that you could have things you could never have. Or be someone you could never be. And when a Hope failed to come true, it was worse than if you’d never had hoped at all.”

Everything about his steady gaze and the serious press of his lips screamed earnest. But he was wrong. “It is...embarrassing.” “Not if you don’t let it be.” His leg brushed mine as he turned in his seat, facing me. Our eyes met. “You have the power over that. People can say crap. They can think whatever they want, but you control how you feel about it.”
