Reader comments
This story is a spiritual map and book of comfort for all modern people operating in the "system", ups and downs in "responsibility", and struggling between "self" and "role". It tells us: the fatigue is yours, the pain is yours, and the loneliness is yours, but the temperature that holds your hand tightly in the middle of the night is yours, the cluster of embers that refuse to be extinguished in despair is yours, and the unquiet but deep and wide sea that is enough to support you sailing is also yours.
