I never got to be in the driver's seat of my own life, she'd wept to me once, in the days after she learned she was going to die. I always did what someone else wanted me to do. I've always been someone's daughter or mother or wife. I've never just been me. Oh, Mom, was all I could say as I stroked her hand. I was too young to say anything else. ✨ Cheryl Strayed (2012).
