It was down the back-shaft elevator when I finally
added the pieces of the puzzle that I had been mulling
over together, it's how I want him to experience life.
"It didn't matter if I wasn't winning, the fact that she won
made me so happy for her. It's not about me." You're right,
Aunt Terry Anne, It's not about me. We rode down
the ten floors in silence, and some woman in the elevator
smiled at me and told me I smelled beautiful. William,
you really are one of the most beautiful things I've ever met
in my life, and I can say that even when I am losing. Because
it's not about me. The elevator opened and outside,
it was turning dark, the sun having lost itself in the skyscrapers
and the tourist's flashing bulbs. I've since framed my puzzle,
because now, it is complete.
