“It’s kind of funny,” she continued (and she must have sensed my alarm because her voice was now pasteled, the harsher edges shaded with fingertips), “the moments on which life hinges. I think growing up you always imagine your life—your success—depends on your family and how much money they have, where you go to college, what sort of job you can pin down, starting salary.” Her lips curled into a laugh before there was sound.

I hope I can be the kind of person who looks toward forgiveness first.”
