She glitters like a jewel. Precious and beyond price. She has caused much pain. Both emotional and literal. She is responsible for our swaths of pain. For our strange trek across the country. And every stop we make, we are guaranteed to hurt that much more.

And I wouldn't trade those for all the real diamonds of the world.
This one, for all its faults. Is mine.
