She walked through the streets carelessly because she had no fear and perhaps that was a good thing, for the world had enough cowardice to flood. I had asked her once if she ever taught herself to deny such a strong emotion and she said no, that she was simply born without it.

I took her words as truth and decided to smile more until I died.
