““She felt vulnerable and alone. Once again, she felt that life was not treating her as it treated other people - it gave her every chance to achieve something, and just when she was close to her objective, the ground opened up and swallowed her. That's how it had been with her studies, with parents, with certain dreams she had never shared with anyone. She felt all possible paths had exhausted, without even taking a single step, But that was how she was, and she felt herself growing gradually weaker and less and less able to change. She stand in a world in which living is more important than understanding.””
