Rewriting: (Don't) Walk Away

In love and in New York, I began to learn what I want and what I have. I want people I love, people I share a happy history and inside jokes with. I want a favorite brunch place and a place to spend the holidays. And I learned the meaning of one of my favorite Joan Didion lines: You have to pick the places you don’t walk away from.  [And I learned that you can’t always pick the people who walk away from you, no matter how much you want to.]
