She was accepting of her faults, but had a calm drive to her that seemed to suggest a confidence that given enough time and passion, she would eventually reach the level she wanted to reach.
Even if she took more time to reach it than others, so long as she reached her own personal goals, she would be happy.
And those personal goals had nothing to do with men.
So… why would she be so insistent on speaking so much?
