Meaning of “I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m learning…”
Difficulty becomes part of learning rather than evidence that one is incapable of navigating life.
Where does it come from?
Little Women, Chapter 44, “My Lord and Lady,” Project Gutenberg #514. Amy March Laurence says “I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m learning how to sail my ship” while discussing her new married life with Laurie. This exact-contraction record and the older expanded “I am not afraid...” catalog variant represent the same underlying fictional passage.
Why the local voice matters
Amy says this in Little Women, Chapter 44, “My Lord and Lady,” while speaking about married life and learning how to manage it.
