I often say that I can cook and sew by myself, and I can do it myself except for the function of giving birth. What I want is that 1➕1 is greater than or equal to 2, and the result is often less than 1. This is why someone knocks on the door and wants to come in but I don't want to open it.
“There’s one thing you’d better understand: I can teach myself sewing, cooking and repairing furniture. I can even comfort myself when I need it. So I don’t ask anyone for anything. I don’t need anyone to give me anything. Except love and respect. And anyone who can't give me these two things has nowhere in my life."
