盡管我因為當時年幼而無法記清雙親共聚的時刻，我還是聽說他倆曾度過燭光閃閃、樂聲繚繞的浪漫夜晚。
Hepburn, the Wife
Although too young to remember my parents together, I was told of romantic evenings, of candle light and soft music.
Anyway, no one is to blame. There is only sadness when two souls cannot merge. The snarling void left by her father’s absence bore an equal share of the responsibility in the failure of both her marriages.
My mother loved her husbands completely, and she hung on to the marriage for as long as she could. What she didn’t do was to speak up and be heard when she needed to, and she didn’t put up healthy boundaries. Exhausted by an authoritarian mother, she wished for a world where caring and love came freely, but she had chosen two men who had to learn to cope with their feelings on their own.
