People tend to romanticise consciousness, as if it__ something spiritual. It__ just a word we use to describe complexity.

You__e here. You__e real. Embrace that person you were, and make sure you have reason to like the person you__e becoming. The past you can__ change. The future is what matters.

My family took me to church when I was like 4 years old, and I had to be in a pageant, and I was playing Jesus.

I love tennis. I've played it my whole life. Loved it since the age of three. I had an injury, so from the age of 13 to 24 I didn't play much. Then when I moved out to L.A., there were so many tennis courts that I rekindled the love.

Sports movies are a genre that I really respond to, but they can be done really poorly and really fall short. The good ones are just so good and inspiring and make you feel good.

A person is not the same as a toaster.

You are so hot,_ I said.__ow hot?_ she asked, toying with the hem of the shirt.__onising radiation hot,_ I said. __eutral pion decay hot.__lena snorted. __ou__e such a romantic,_ she said.

I wasn__ sure how I felt about there being another me sharing space in the universe. Would I even like myself?

Someday you'll understand. You'll have your own children, and they'll mean more to you than the world. A wife has to defend her children, even against her own husband. Not that I expect you to be easily cowed. But sometimes, despite all you say and do, your husband won't be dissuaded from folly. When that happens, as a mother you have to close ranks. Your first responsibility is to your children. To salvage what you can. Even if they hate you for it.
