I hated God for giving me a heart. What good were they? Hearts? Having one got me exactly where? Picture Quote #1

Summer was here again. Summer, summer, summer. I loved and hated summers. Summers had a logic all their own and they always brought something out in me. Summer was supposed to be about freedom and youth and no school and possibilities and adventure and exploration. Summer was a book of hope. That’s why I loved and hated summers. Because they made me want to believe Picture Quote #1

I wondered about the science of storms and how sometimes it seemed that a storm wanted to break the world and how the world refused to break Picture Quote #1
