Good Literature

Good literature is a mirror.

A source of reflection.

It reflects what exists but is hitherto unnoticed.

An interplay between vulnerability and beauty.

The reader decides which she sees in the mirror.

Good literature is first vulnerable before it is beautiful.

The courage to show up as you are is beautiful.

It connects souls without permission.

Providing a balm to a fiery mind.

The reader finds calm between the lines.
