But I'm a fierce queen.
May you walk a lighted path. May you fight for truth - your truth, not someone else's - and may you understand, above all things, that you are the most important concept, theory, and philosophy I have ever known.

O Lord, may I never want to look good. O Jesus, may I always read it all: out loud and the very way it should be.
