If we knew what she had, we wouldn't be spellbound would we?

I know her. I've seen her in action with others, and I know better. But some part of me needs to be validated. I'm still sexy, right? Am I still funny? Do I make people think? I must know. But the secret is...I'll never know. She'll never give an answer that I believe. Maybe that's the power. The ability to field questions without answering them.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
