outsider


Random quote of the day:

“Without somebody to watch me, laugh at my jokes, tell me what to do, ask me questions, race me to the river, make me guess the names of birds, or challenge me to count the silvery fish in a school, there was nothing for me to do. Without somebody to be somebody to, it was as though I wasn’t somebody myself.”

―Michael Dorris, Sees Behind Trees
