| d39d6f5 | There are no extra people alive today. Every single one of us is here for a reason, a special purpose--a mission. Yes, build a beautiful life for yourself and those you love.

| 983c5f0 | Her voice was polished with a hint of a New England-boarding-school accent that shouted refinement over geographic locale. I was trying not to stare. She saw that and smiled a little.
