"You didn’t do anything you weren’t supposed to do. As a talented and intelligent person, it was your job to do that thing. Whether it was a nice gesture or some difficult-to-pull-off feat, you did what you were capable of doing, what you were trained to do, what you were expected to do. You are supposed to be generous. You are supposed to be kind. **The fact that no one is rushing to throw you a parade is its own compliment in a way. We’re not surprised . . . because we know you. We know who you are**."
