I know I keep telling this story, but I think itās important. I am alive today because of Peggy Carter and Daniel Sousa.
I had a plan ready to go, letters written and literally nothing inside of myself except for emptiness and exhaustion.
So I took a bath and sank into my bubbles, trying to treat myself one last time, trying not to panic or be afraid.
And then I sat up with a shock and said, out loud, āGoddammit. I have to know if Peggy and Daniel end up together!ā
And it occurred to me that the next episode was going to be on on Monday and it was already Saturday night. I could wait until Monday and see if any of my questions were answered.
And then it was the next Monday and then the next and before I realized it, Peggy and Daniel WERE together and I had trudged along just far enough for life to remind me that there were still some things worth sticking around for.
So donāt think any one thing is too small to make a difference. Because you really never know whatās going to be the thing that makes someone say, āOkay, Iāll wait.ā
