“And so that is my resolution: to try my very hardest write something that binds me to this world, that helps me see it, in all its ugliness and all its beauty, and gives me strength to fight for the things living in it.”
Matthew Griffin

“A cold front had rumbled through in the night, left its rain behind in wide, deep puddles that reflected the first autumn sky of the year, the kind of blue so startling children demand a reason. They reflected the trees that rose out of them, too, as if those trees had no roots but reached with their branches as deep into a sky at our feet as they did into the one above our heads, as if you could take one step and fall forever upwards. The world was a bright, strange place, I thought, where none of us belonged.”
Matthew Griffin
