Everything I know about my family's history, I know in fragments. We are the keepers of secrets. We are secrets ourselves. We try to protect each other from the geography of so much sorrow, I don't know that we succeed.

I don't even know what to say, this is so beautifully written😭 My favorite is In the Manner of Water or Light.
