In Their Words: “I’ve been what I’d loosely call ‘grown-up’ for a decade-plus now, long enough for the early days of that period to come into relief. 22 has an intensity that would be impossible to bear for the rest of your life. On the other hand, isn’t it sad when things don’t cut as deep? I used to feel a longing for someone so fervent I was afraid it would use me all up if I couldn’t shake it off. To my surprise, it’s still with me, but duller these days, like an old heartbeat. I’m starting to think you remember everything, only increasingly pastel. This is a good thing for survival, but it makes me want to cry. Even the crying’s softer now.” — Libby Rodenbough
