About This Quote

"No" is a word we all hear often. It is often used as the first reaction to a situation where we think it is best to avoid having to deal with an unpleasant and difficult task. Dimitri’s reaction, however, was more than just a reaction. When Dimitri said “No” he was attempting to reassure me that I would be able to come through this just as I had done all of the other times in my life.

This time, however, I was afraid that I would actually fail. Even though I knew that Dimitri loved me and knew that I had the ability to overcome many difficulties, this time I was afraid that I might actually fail and be unable to come back from my fall.
