If you aren't the woman I think you are, then this isn't the world I thought it was.
We lead our lives like water flowing down a hill, going more or less in one direction until we splash into something that forces us to find a new course.
For a flicker of a moment I imagined a world completely different from the one I'd always known, a world in which I was treated with fairness, even kindness-- a world in which fathers didn't sell their daughters.
