You love someone for the person they are inside. That is what is important. It is not where you live, or what type of clothes you have, or even what your family looks like.

When the mother starts to tell us about a dream she has where she and Dee meet again on a TV talk show, she makes a reference to the way she really looks, "large big-boned woman with rough, man working hands" (492). Then she says that is not the woman she is on the show.
