She told him how it was so incredibly rare and beautiful to exist in our world. Because their lives were so so small and insignificant to the world around them. They lived in a galaxy in the vast expanse of space. And then there was the universe. They were so so small compared to the rest of the world. 

She told him how the stars were courageous. Because even though they know they are going to eventually burn out and die, they keep burning and burning. And at the end of their death, when they know they're going to die, is when they burn the brightest. They never stop being a guide for the lost people in the world. And even after death, their light carries on.

And she told him how lucky they  were to exist together, how incredibly lucky they were to live at the exact same time in the millions of years of existence and how they happened to be in the exact same place in the exact same time. And no matter what, she wouldn't change any of it. 

Even through all the bad things in her life, even through all the things she suffered through, she wouldn't change any of it. Because if she did, she might've never known what love was.
