He complained: "Sister, I feel so difficult living these days. To be honest, people avoid me like they avoid people with Covid". She grabbed a sip of coffee and nodded, " chuyen. Yesterday, she told her colleagues that her presentation was a bit bulky, but this morning she saw it posted a status: "This society, living well is still stabbed behind the back". But I haven't had time to stab yet, just knock lightly".
He sighed: "I see people living a life of pretending, but being loved. I live for real, but I am considered unlucky, rudimentary, and lacking in sophistication. That, like the day before, I told my friend directly that he was wearing a side-paradage, because I thought his friends should give him a suggestion to fix it, but it unfriended him.

Like going out to eat, seeing the dishes is bad and laughing, but who would stand up and declare: This dish is not eating! That's all fun! I think living honestly is good, but living kindly is lasting.
He looked at her, then looked up to the sky, where a kite was traveling, the end was broken but still flying. "It's like that kite. Not perfect but still flying, as long as there are ropes to hold them".
She nodded: " And as long as someone understands. I don't need the whole world to like me. Just a few people understand that they are living a real life, that is enough.
