“That God that my mom thinks she serves- he’s so much smaller than who I think the real one is. The real one- to me, he’s everywhere, in everything. And sure, maybe he speaks through the Bible.

Mia told me to trust the process and I am and I’m loving it even tho I don’t 100% comprehend in full a lot of the events going on - just so complex either way - part ii was brilliant.
