Annie Fisher Quotes
There Is A Whole Generation Of Young People Just Like Us Wandering Around Europe And The Rest Of The World, Trying To Find Some Meaning For Why They Are Alive And What They Should Choose To Do With Their Time. When Martha Leaves And We Sit In Front Of The Fire In The Living Room, I Look To Lily Until She Turns To Me And I Can See The Grief That Hides Just Under The Surface Of Her Expression. We Are, Or At Least Were, Two Of Those Lost Souls: Wanderers, Backpackers, Season Workers, Wwoofers, Workawayers, Travellers: Searching The World For Something Or Someplace To Hold On To. And We Have Come Home Not Because We Have Retired From Trying To Find Answers And Are Ready To Settle Into Adulthood, But Because My Death Has Come Upon Us Fast And Unexpected. I Am Not The First Person Of This Generation Of Travellers- Or Any Person Who Lives In This Godless, Superficial Society- To Die. But I Think That It Feels To Lily And To Me, My Mother Too Perhaps, That I May Very Well Be.
