quote 2017-03-20 18:26
" I recorded a part of the phone call, and Mima didn't know it. So her voice would never become extinct."
The Inexplicable Logic of My Life - Benjamin Alire Sáenz

Sal's Mima was like this mother when he was growing up and now, she is dying from cancer.  Sal keeps everything inside for Sal is a thinker, he ponders and the list of questions inside his head grows daily.  This quote stopped me dead in my tracks when I read it, thank you Sal for taking a positive stance.

Another secret of the universe: Sometimes pain was like a storm that came out of nowhere. The clearest summer could end in a downpour. Could end in lightning and thunder.
