but at some animate entity.

They knew that it was a mortal sin to marry
someone of a different skin color.

To never forget your own insignificance.

and the vulgar disparity of life around you.
To seek joy in the saddest places.

To respect strength, never power.
Above all, to watch. To try to understand.
To never look away. And never, never, to forget.

in the name of life being "unfair."
And Life is still not "fair."
