Cheesman Park Quotes

“I can tell how sad I look. It's something in my eyes. There's this dull light inside them. I'm starting to wonder if it's always been there. If I looked that way before your father, when I was a teenager, or even a little girl...What happened to me that made me look so sad?...I get embarrassed. I kept wondering how many people recognized that sadness in me. Probably more than I'd like to know. But it changed...The world did. It became less urgent, somehow bigger, and I didn't worry so much about being loved.”
