Francesca Serritella
“Iris didn't have the perfume, but she had something more powerful: self-knowledge. She knew she had the strength and the courage to face the ugliest parts of her lived experience. That trauma was a part of her, but not the defining note. She would not disconnect from the body or the world that had once hurt her. She couldn't heal without connection, first to herself and her body--- that was her first home. She would trust herself first, and then others. Her gut instinct, her heart's desires, her mind's memories and fantasies, fully integrated and embodied. Getting there would be an ongoing process, forever, for everyone.”
Francesca Serritella, Full Bloom
