Why this must be read:
She'd always been an open book. Words, phrases, ideas, inspirations, tattooed her skin, visible to those granted access to her collection.
Her aspiration was emblazoned on her forehead, drawing him in at their first meeting. The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. theme continued, with 'Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter' on her left cheek, and 'The ultimate measure of a man...' covering her neck and collar bones.
This is one of my all-time favorite West Wing stories. Katrina takes a theme and works with it. The things CJ has written on her skin, marks from so many people, so many hurts and so many joys. The idea itself is beautiful; but it is the execution that really brings to life this story. I was so surprised that no one had reccomended it before--it's wonderful.
