“i’m sorry to the anger in me, put there by someone with nothing but hatred in their heart, which makes my words venomous, and my thoughts volatile, towards everyone who has ever wronged me (including myself).”
― Winnie Kendrick, there has always been magic within me

“It is often said that the first sound we hear in the womb is our mother’s heartbeat. Actually, the first sound to vibrate our newly developed hearing apparatus is the pulse of our mother’s blood through her veins and arteries. We vibrate to that primordial rhythm even before we have ears to hear. Before we were conceived, we existed in part as an egg in our mother’s ovary. All the eggs a woman will ever carry form in her ovaries while she is a four-month-old fetus in the womb of her mother. This means our cellular life as an egg begins in the womb of our grandmother. Each of us spent five months in our grandmother’s womb and she in turn formed within the womb of her grandmother. We vibrate to the rhythms of our mother’s blood before she herself is born. . . .”

“The brain is such a complex thing. It has the ability to store so much, and also to tuck away certain things that don’t need repeated examination.”
― John Marrs, What Lies Between Us

“when my daughter was born,  i always thought she would be better off without me.  because i came from you, and you poisoned me, so surely, i would poison her.  but, slowly, i realized that we are not the same.  i realized that i would rather die than make my daughter feel anything close to what you made me feel.”
