They can only say that it is a strong control of the weak, this is their personal choice.

"Never sinking" the author Dani. Alan Butler laments: it is because they are born to be educated: responsibility is more important than the other!

In the face of life, everything is equal, if because of the release of the lover's hand,

Choose a person guarding a pile of exudes the ruins of the fabric of the living, life what is the meaning!

Whether it is the face of life and death or any hardship in life, love the hand will never let go!
