The good body
Süžeeskeem Tekst
- When I was a little girl people used to ask me
- What do you want kids to be when you grow up?
- Astronaut!
- good
- Doctor!
- Becoming good was harder than becoming a doctor or an astronaut or a lifeguard. There are tests to pass to become those things—you have to learn dissection or conquer gravity or practice treading water.
- Becoming good was not like that. It was abstract. It felt completely out of reach. It became the only thing that mattered to me. If I could be good, everything would be all right. I would fit in. I would be popular. I would skip death and go straight to heaven.
- If you asked me now what this means, to be good, I still don't know exactly.
