Lauren TarshisThat was how it always was with Colleen: No matter how sad she felt, there was always this little bit of hope - like a speck of glitter caught in your eyelash - that never went away, no matter what.
About This Quote
This is a quote from the book, "I Know This Much is True." This is it how it always was with Colleen. Colleen's mom called her "the love of my life". She was the only person who could see her daughter's pain even when she was sad. Her mom had this way of making her feel better all the time.
When Colleen was mad, she would be sad because of it, but when she thought about her mom, there was always this speck of hope in her heart. It made her feel better about everything. It also shows that no matter how hard you are hit by something, there is always this tiny little bit of hope that never goes away.
