The reading that has so far impacted me so far was "Mirrors". Actually, it was not even the main part of the story that got me, it was something discussed early on and very briefly. I felt so sorry for her as a child when she learned to equate crying with being brave. I learned the same thing as child, but from my siblings rather than the adults in my life. I am just amazed that it seems so easy for people to silence children like that. I hurt me to read the story and think that today, though I think society emphasizes this more with men, people are still taught at young ages that crying is a sign of weakness.
