It was my favorite because she's so brilliant.
She's so good at keeping everything to herself and still giving you something.
That it's all very important.
That what you decide to keep for yourself is okay.

Not even the closest people to you.
There are things that you get to keep for yourself because they're just yours.

And sometimes that should be enough.
Sometimes that's enough because that's what she wanted to give.
