" No. No, Bobbi. You try to understand yourself. You think about it, try to say it. And it takes you forever because you use so many words. But you're not open-- not really. You don't let yourself feel, and then do something about it. You don't listen to your heart. You have to consider everything, think about it for a year or two, take one little step at a time. You must be careful or God will turn you into a pillar of salt. You spend your whole life looking behind you. "

― Dean Hughes , As Long As I Have You (Children of the Promise, #5)
