It is because of you that I was able to pass through this darkness.

Before meeting you, she was just an ordinary town girl. He is friendly to everyone and never hates anyone. She will run and ride a bike with her boyfriend who loves sports, even though she doesn't like sports at all. She will work hard to make money for her family, and even give up her college admission letter and her fashion design dream. She and her sister made a bet that she could get a job in a day. So, she was in the cafe, doing baking for six years, until the cafe closed down.

Before meeting you, he was adventurous and did many extreme sports. He dives, skis, surfs, he loves the thrill of extreme sports. He is also a well-known entrepreneur with a beautiful girlfriend and an enviable life. But a car accident changed everything. Highly paraplegic, his girlfriend also left him, every minute of his life is pain and torture for him. For six months, he promised his parents that he would live well for six months.

What would my life be like if I hadn't met you? Will it be just as lonely, or will someone else pass by?

If she hadn't met you, she might have been the girl who was always in the town. If he hadn't met you, he might have spent the last six months in such a quiet, boring way of ending his life.

However, I met you. After meeting you, we are different.

After meeting you, she saw a colorful world that she had never seen before. They watch French movies with subtitles together, gamble on horses, ride in wheelchairs together, and gallop down country roads together. They go to concerts together and travel together. She tried her best to make him feel the beauty of this world, and tried her best to keep him.

After meeting you, he felt that there was something else to look forward to besides death. Her smile was like sunshine, shining into his heart. He said to her: "You're probably the only reason I want to wake up every morning. He shaved his beard and took her to his castle to share his story. He gave her her birthday present, the black and yellow striped bee pantyhose she dreamed of when she was a child. He took her to try all kinds of life she had never experienced before, and let her know that she could make her life different.

After meeting you, you changed me. Because of you, I have become a better me. I haven't been able to change your mind and make you give up the idea of ​​euthanasia.

After meeting you, you warmed me. Because of you, I regained my smile. Break the plan, but not change the outcome.

Sitting in a wheelchair all day long was not the life he wanted. He also didn't want such a self to become her bondage. He still insists on euthanasia, but this time the reason has changed. Love her, so set her free.

Love is not change, it is giving you freedom and giving you love. You can't change who people are, but you can love them.

Love him, so respect his choices. When she walked confidently on the streets of his favorite Paris in the little bee pantyhose he gave, she instantly understood his choice. Life is not just living, he chose the best way he could think of, and accompanies her forever.

She will stay in his heart forever, why is he not always remembered by her? Left, good, better life. And the motivation for me to live well is you.

I remember what you said to me.

You only get one life. It's actually your duty to live it as fully as possible.

Live bold. Push yourself. Don't settle.

Just live well. Just live.

I know, you've always been by my side and never left.

All encounters are meaningful. Even if we have to separate in the end, it is the greatest luck in my life that I can meet you.
