Nirvana: a place or state characterized by freedom from or oblivion to pain, worry, and the external world.
Lily describes her place of Nirvana as a place between two orchids of her fathers peach farm that she would go to when her father fell asleep, or was not home. "There was a special place out there in the long tunnel of theres no one knew about, not even Rosaleen." Lily explains as she talks about the location of her special place.
The reason this scene grabbed my attention was because it was the first realistic thing that she spoke with passion for, other than her mother and the memories that she has of her.
"But later I would slip out there, sometimes after T.Ray had gone to bed, just to lie under the trees and be peaceful. It was my plot of earth."
This quote supports my blog because she talks about being peacefull and how this is her "plot of earth" which connects my point to the definition of Nirvana.
