My Sister's Keeper

I finished reading My Sister's Keeper last night by Jodi Picoult.  Aside from the fact that the book, in the end, was far more depressing than I thought possible, there was a line at the end that hit home.  It reads:

"You want your child to have more than you ever did.  You want to build a fire underneath her and watch her soar.  It's bigger than words."

I think I should be soaring by now, but everyone has a different pace.  I am working on this more than I could tell anyone.  I don't know if it's more for me now and personal satisfaction or if it's for the one person that has been trying to light that fire all along, my mom.
