Time does not = full knowledge

It is so sad how I still don't know my bestie even after so many years and how the full truth of things is required, as long as it is told with goodwill and for art's sake. If there was an inability to accept the full truth, the request would not have been put forth in the first place. Why do I need to get so uptight about it? After all, intertextuality is inevitable in art. As a Lit major, I should know!!
