Margaret Atwood, The Blind Assasin

"Aphrodite," I plead to the moon drenched night sky

"Tell me; if love is meant to heal, then why does it destroy those who choose it?"

From somewhere beyond the clouds, I heard the Goddess laugh.

And I knew.

some Lily Evans headcanons that just make sense:

She is always reading something new and is always excited about it (tells the story to everyone over and over);

She wants to be a healer because she frequently wanting to make things better to everyone;

That's why she is so kind and loving;

Except with the boy with messy hair and cocky smile. There is just something about him that makes her act different, probably just because he's so arrogant right? right?

She rarely stand up for herself because she constantly understand the other points of view and she doesn't want to bother anyone. (But James Potter makes her so confident that she starts to value herself more, and also he annoys her so much that there no way to be calm);

But when it comes to others, she defends with body and soul;

Her, Mary, Alice and Marlene used to shop, go to the movies or go to hogsmead on the weekends. And at the end of the night Lily used them as her guinea pigs to see if her potions were working;

She is a terrible in the kitchen, she prefers her cauldron and laboratory;

She has a embarrassing laugh that makes her blush;

She is a good prankster but she doesn't admitt it (better than the marauders but don't tell them);

If you have a secret and you need someone who will not judge you, Lily is your girl, she can handle the furriest of problems;

She is really mad when people are mean and indifferent;

And it came to the war she and Remus was the ones who come up with quick strategies and plans;

When she started dating James she was head over hills and both of them had more inside jokes than everyone;

She loves the marauders, they were her family;

Her parents only paid attention to the magical part of her and they never truly saw her;

She loves to dance, her and Sirius used to go out together to dance before she started dating James;

When she was dating him the three of them danced on the common room constantly;

She thinks The Beatles are geniuses and she was the one who gave the album to Sirius;

She wasn't very good at sports because she grow up with Petunia, and to be honest Petunia wasn't even good at walking;

But to impress someone, she asked Marlene to teach her quidditch, (and she started to enjoy it but didn't had time to join the team);

She knew how to use a gun because her dad went hunting (that made James shit his pants, knowing he had such a deer love for animals);

She sings well but always in whispers.

She swears a lot but only in rare occasions (James Potter happened to be in every single one of those occasions);

She is a good listener;

Deep down she thought James ability to get in trouble were funny and kind of cute;

Most of the time she appears to be the quiet one between her group of friends, but the girls and the marauders knew that was a lie;

And finally, that wasn't a soul who wouldn't like Lily Evans with her ways to make everyone feel special and her big smile that painted all her face and contagiously made everybody smiles back.
