First, he’d eased my contracted fist open, and then he’d transferred the fragile little guy over from his palm to mine. Looking at him then, he wasn’t weird anymore. Or gross. He was a fighter. Here to remind us that it’s okay to struggle and fall. Because if you didn’t… then how would you ever fly?
