My love for you has nothing to do with you. Please forgive my humble absence for the rest of your life
There is no one else I can love except you. But who are you to me? You have never recognized me. You walked by me as if you were walking by a river. You stepped on me as if you were stepping on a stone. You always walked and walked and kept walking forward, but you made me spend my whole life waiting.
It's a good read. The story is vivid and vivid. A strange woman expresses her love for the author in a letter.
Very good, I will definitely read it carefully and read it several times
"Cultivating the habit of reading will benefit you endlessly. There are few sports that are suitable for you who are no longer in your prime, so that you can continue to get satisfaction from it, and games often require us to find companions to complete together. Reading does not have such inconveniences. Books can be picked up and read anytime, anywhere. When there are important things that need to be dealt with immediately, you can put them down at any time and continue reading later.
Reading such a classic book makes me feel at ease
The content itself is delicate and vivid, and it is shocking to read. But in reality, I don't understand women's feelings. Too much wishful thinking is painful, tiring and even stupid. If you love him, why not let him know.
This book was recommended to us by the teacher. It's very interesting.
A pretty good book
I once received calls from several strange women, either selling insurance or selling real estate.
