Quote
To belong did not mean ownership. You were not someone’s property. The “be” syllable was about existence: “to be” yourself and “to be” in a special place that no one else could occupy within your family except you. The “long” part was about the heart, a place in the heart where a family met and lived together. They didn’t just put up with each other. They longed for each other. To belong was not a state of mind but a state of heart.

Quote
Die Liebe zu den Kindern - besser, man kämpft gegen sie an. Man kommt ja auch nicht einem Hund zu nahe; sogar wenn er freundlich aussieht, kann er zuschnappen. Stets muss man einen Abstand lassen zwischen sich und seinem Kind, sie sterben einfach zu schnell. Aber mit jedem Jahr, das vergeht, gewöhnt man sich mehr an so ein Wesen. Man fasst Zutrauen, man erlaubt sich, es teilzuhaben. Und plötzlich ist es weg.

I continuously see myself on an airplane that has unlimited fuel. I go here and there but can't stop. Always flying over my destination. I've come to realize I must jump off with my parachute on of course. That is how I'm viewing my life right now.Once I find that loophole than I've reached my destination to success.

I wanted to know what our family's stories were. I wanted to know the things Mom wouldn't think to tell me. Things she knew but never said out loud, because they were a part of her. I wanted to know what made the Bahrami family special.
