Paper Hearts and Teabags

"Aren't we all like teabags? We don't know our own strengths till we're in hot water."

-Emily Gao

Our hearts are like paper. Used all the time. Its value is overlooked. Fragile. Mistakenly viewed as simple. Each person who is able to see the truth in that heart leaves behind a permanent wrinkle. Each person given the power to hold that heart in his or her hand and do whatever he or she pleases with it can either keep it in its original condition, rip it, tear it in two, or write a beautiful, pure, and colorful story on it.

Dad

Had a long chat with him today.

It was nice.

We never get to talk.

Favorite part?

Dad: This is why I hate menopause women.

Me: ???

Dad: They just unreasonable and (insert part that I don’t remember here). One menopause woman (*note*my mother) is enough! Now all women menopause. (*note*family friends) Psh. You ask me to organize women’s choir and dance group? NO.
