Kalli's eyes lit up. "Hey, I know what that is! A friend introduced me to skiing. I'm no expert or anything, but I've done it a bunch of times. Well, only on a holodeck, but it was very fun. I would imagine that it is more dangerous on a real mountain though."
She listened to Carley express how she felt about helping others. Nodding here and there, Kalli finally agreed, "Very true. A person can do what they are able to, but you can't remove all strife from the universe. In fact, it would be bad if you did. As crazy as it seems, you have to have a certain amount of contrast.

Everyone needs a hand sometimes, but the rest is then up to them." She then restated what Carley had hit on, "You're right though, we celebrate what victories we can."
