she told herself that even with no roots...

....some things do just fine.

 

I have no roots. my father was a petroleum engineer and we moved every two years. I think my mother and my sister suffered the most.

I didn't realize that I was rootless, but when my shrink told me, years ago, i had one of those "aha" moments with better understanding.

 

my friend sati sent the tilandsias; air plants [the grassy ones]...rootless. they are doing just fine.
