Anne always had a new outlook on life, she was always trying to find the good after many years forced to deal with the bad.

"I think so. It's impossible to lead a life without a little sadness in it, much as it would be nice not to. But some tragedy is romantic and thrilling, even though it's often brought by something terrible. It can be nice to soak up the tragedy and release it when you're too full. Lika a catharsis! I wonder, will I find people who feel the same way?"

And Anne nodded enthusiastically. "I have been! I like keeping myself busy, it's the best way to spend time, especially when you're looking forward to something."

"I'd love to have your help. But first, I must introduce myself. I'm Anne Shirley Cuthbert. It's a pleasure to meet you."
