Little Bee and life's reflection
3/30/2011 06:02:00 AMHave just finished reading a book by Chris Cleave title : The Other Hand (UK version) [ or Little Bee (US version)]
I fall in love with the dictions, the story, the plots, the whole things this book has inspirationally.

Little Bee :
"We must see all scars as beauty. Okay? This will be our secret. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived."
*
Little Bee:
"What is an adventure? That depends on where you are starting from. Little girls in your country, they hide in the gap between the washing machine and the refrigerator and they make believe they are in the jungle, with green snakes and monkeys all around them. Me and my sister, we used to hide in a gap in the jungle, with green snakes and monkeys all around us, and make believe that we had a washing machine and a refrigerator. You live in a world of machines and you dream off things with beating hearts. We dream of machines, because we see where beating hearts have left us."

Little Bee:
I was carrying two cargoes. Yes, one of them was horror, but the other one was hope."
