"Perhaps there was a version of her who had the grace not to shoot, but Geeta had been forged in fire and fire shaped her mettle. This was the version of her who had survived and there was no sense in apologising for being a survivor." - Parini Shroff

I am… completely locked out of twitter on my phone 🤦‍♀️

I changed my ‘current read’ on the end of my screen name & it lost it & now I can’t get back in.
