About This Quote
I liked the fact that I could be who I wanted to be without my sister's voice reminding me of who I had been. This quote is one of my personal favorites. Here, the speaker is struggling with the idea of having to choose between embracing who she truly is and simply being her sister's shadow. The thought of being so completely different, so completely disconnected from her sister, is frightening. And yet, if she hides away who she really is, she might never thrive at all.
