“Mom shakes her head, and suddenly I hear it. She isn't just red. She never has been. This whole time, I've heard the wrong notes. My mother has all this blue just beneath the surface. She's been purple all along. Anger plus sadness is purple.

You're purple if you love someone who can't love you back the way you want to be loved--the way you need it.”
