Eighteen, Never to Return

They met in the best years of their lives and watched each other grow, sharing their youth. Love comes fiercely, but when it disappears, it catches you completely off guard. When you try to hold on to it, it slips away with all its might. When you want to let it go, it can't bear to leave you. I once heard someone say that there are no two people who are perfectly suited to each other. They simply learn to give and take, gradually find their rhythm, and can't bear to part or let go of each other. That's how they end up together for life. In the end, what love and marriage come down to is a sense of responsibility...

This book is the coming-of-age diary of an ordinary girl, recounting experiences from middle school through her working years, and the struggles of growing from an awkward teenager into an adult. It records not only love, but also friendship and family ties. I hope that after reading it, you will rethink how you want to live your life and find new goals to strive for.

May you, at eighteen, no longer feel lost. Love yourself well. When you become a better version of yourself, someone will see your light...

Thank you to everyone who reads this book.
