I can't wait to read your book! I so deeply appreciate chewing on your thoughts and tracing your intellectual developments. Please keep going. Please keep telling the truth. You're making those around you smarter, more aware, and more thoughtful.
Oh, my goodness, this: "There is no view from nowhere, and learning about another person’s somewhere will save our lives." hit me. Hard. Learning about another person's somewhere - what a beautiful way of reminding us that we never, ever know what someone else's life is like, what their reality is, what thoughts and beliefs flit through their minds. Thank you for this - and for writing.
"It’s important to remember that the people we assume are objective are, in fact, just the people who traditionally have had influence." This keeps haunting me. Thank you. And I can't wait to read Unfit Parent!
So moving and well said. I look forward to your book(s)! To what are you pointing in the picture of your doggie eating a stick? Thank you for the pictures, by the way!
Jessica- Your goal of reading where you can is so impactful and fitting that I'm sure Unfit Parent is a meaningful read. I appreciate your openness with your life. Hope you're well this week? Cheers, -Thalia

I'm so glad that line jumped out at you! I was hoping it would make sense to other people :)

Thank you, Erin! I am thinking so much about objectivity as I write these final chapters.

Thank you, Aunt Donna! Khalil is out of frame in that photo, and I think we were probably talking about some bird :)
