Quote by butterflies rising

“my friends & i have always felt sad about how, as girls, it's not safe for us to take late-night walks… when all we wanna do is go look at the moon. but a few nights ago, a woman left the earth, on her way to be the first woman to go to the moon, in a rocket named after a goddess… and the moon was pink that night… and it felt like being told to keep reaching for a better world… one where we're so free to take walks under the moon that we feel like we could touch it.”
