Cheryl Strayed Quotes

I Didn't Get To Grow Up And Pull Away From Her And Bitch About Her With My Friends And Confront Her About The Things I'd Wished She'd Done Differently And Then Get Older And Understand That She Had Done The Best She Could And Realize That What She Had Done Was Pretty Damn Good And Take Her Fully Back Into My Arms Again. Her Death Had Obliterated That. It Had Obliterated Me. It Had Cut Me Short At The Very Heigh Of My Youthful Arrogance. It Had Forced Me To Instantly Grow Up And Forgive Her Every Motherly Fault At The Same Time That It Kept Me Forever A Child, My Life Both Ended And Begun In That Premature Place Where We'd Left Off. She Was My Mother, But I Was Motherless. I Was Trapped By Her, But Utterly Alone. She Would Always Be The Empty Bowl That No One Could Full. I'd Have To Fill It Myself Again And Again And Again.
