Certain magical people you know in your life are constantly showing you how to see yourself differently, how to stand in a different position to events and emotions in your own story. There are many hands held out to you. These people are almost never who you expect. Look in the liminal spaces, accidental fissures, and cracks: they are windows. Look behind you, too. Your periphery is not nothing.
