About This Quote

In the end, this quote is about change.  As Gaby was getting older, she was coming to the realization that things were different from how they used to be when she was younger. She was growing up and changing in ways that would hopefully help her become a better person. Things were changing around her, and she did not like it.

She did not want to change, but she did not want to lose her childhood either. Eventually, she realized that the point of living was to change and grow. She could decide if she wanted to get involved with other people or if she wanted to spend her time on her own.

Ultimately, the choices were hers alone, but knowing that would make all the difference in the world.
