Quotes by Lori L. Tharps (?)

“I felt a new sense of optimism and excitement. “Lori,” I said to myself, “you have to make your own happiness. You can’t expect people to just come to you and make you their project.” I agreed with myself and promised to do better. To get into Spanish life, I started making a mental list of all the things I could do to become more Spanish.”
― Lori L. Tharps, Kinky Gazpacho: Life, Love & Spain
