Yesterday I saw a young girl (maybe 19 or 20) wearing shoes like these and carrying a 2 year old, waiting to jaywalk past a very wide street. She was pretty and stylish, but stylish in way where the clothes and shoes she was wearing seemed to belong to a woman of an older age . . . so that they didn't seem to fit her quite right. It was so hot yesterday on the streets of LA and I couldn't help wondering who this girl was, if the child was her daughter, and where she was headed next. Sometimes the scenes in this city can break your heart.
