edit data

Patricia Obrien began writing in simple forms from a public school near her home. Many teachers asked her questions; her answers back to them confused them, since they were often questions as well. They fought for her in truth and books of proof. She still questioned them freely, but experience did not fail her. She completed her tests with the T's and I's crossed and dotted. Her grades were all A to A+ the Bs made her average and she passed. Anyways, she lost some friends along the way, but to this day she fights criminal actions with her simple words, on her own. She protests at court without shirk and laughs in their faces as she bows in respect anyway. She is hard-driven – only by herself some days – but she fights anyways. Thank you to ...more

Quotes by Patricia Obrien (?)

“Through the haze of emotion and almost lost memories, an innocent but not forgotten first love appears, taking me back to times when sharing a cold cola with a boy was the most wonderful after school activity this girl could ask for. Having someone wanting to spend time with me was great. And it got me away from the inner family circle. Unfortunately this boy was crippled. It made no difference, however. The fact he was himself was all that mattered to me.”

“When I was a child everything had its value. A lot of things; flowers, friends even a small puppy, they all had a part in my life’s value. Hard times to me meant high feed or hay prices, or too little rain for the gardens. Everything was so natural it gave me a real feeling of belonging to the earth. To have the freedom to run, jump and shout at the top of our lungs made all of us appreciate private spaces.”

“As I sit alone in the dawn of the morning. The sun was creating the eastern sky. A rise in the wind, and in the distance a muffled rumble of a train. It takes my memories to a small over pass, the size is just right for a young child to hunch and pass under, to another level of protection. On the other side of the tracks was a whole other world for me and a few of my friends. The rail stretched below our property after a row of stubbly cedars is where it lie, running east to west double in its power both rails past by our home.”
