“Being raised in an unstable household makes you understand
that the world doesn’t exist to accommodate you, which, in Hannah’s
observation, is something a lot of people struggle to understand well into
adulthood. It makes you realize how quickly a situation can shift, how danger
really is everywhere.
But crises, when they occur, do not catch you off guard;
you have never believed you live under the shelter of some essential
benevolence. And an unstable childhood makes you appreciate calmness and not
crave excitement.
To spend a Saturday afternoon mopping your kitchen floor
while listening to an opera on the radio, and to go that night to an Indian
restaurant with a friend and be home by nine o’ clock—these are enough. They
are gifts.” — Curtis Sittenfeld
