    Lovely quote, lovely image. I had never really thought of the story that way. I haven't read Slaughter House Five, but it's definitely going on my to-read list. :)

      Bethany, I can't believe I was 24 (and a Vonnegut fan) and I had never read it! It's a quick read, and has a lot to say.

    I never thought of the story that way, either--it's an entirely different perspective!

    and it is so very hard not to look back, no matter how good or bad the present or future may be.
