47Short end of the story
2Dedication
48Make no mistake, if your husband has chosen another, he does not love you. Who loves you, chooses you among billions and does not look at anyone right?
3Afternoon tour
49I am a composer, filmmaker, and writer. My art is my great therapy. I do not sell anything, but it is what makes me feel good enough to get me over ten thousand loving rejections. Today I am well, in my house with my relatives.
4Lunch on Sunday
50Maybe I even have some hope of having a love. But I have nothing to offer, you know? I feel obligated to my family members because they are sick and have no one in life.
5Jesus and the disciple
51We should never give ourselves completely to love. The risk of getting hurt is great.

6Reflecting on my dreams
52I work morning, afternoon, and evening. There are people who criticize me because I work too much. But how will I pay my bills?
7There are many injustices in this life.
53Did you know that being poor is better than being rich? I love my life as poor and smelly.
8Think less and act more.
54The big problem for people on dating apps is that they do not trust. How am I going to relate to someone if they do not trust me?
9Laziness is terrible.
55Guys, I am being the victim of strange accidents. I am sure it is the work of black magic. Pray for me, okay? The enemy will not leave me alone.
10The immense pleasure of the melancholy is to remember sad things.
56You never know if a project is going to work.
11Do not fill your life with lies.
57Does a couple live in a separate housework?
12Whoever wants to be great, let him serve everyone?
58Because when we are in a bad phase, no one comes to help, and everyone runs away?
13Let us be tolerant of each other.
59I helped one person on one thing and then I needed it too. However, she refused to help me. Then I asked for a phone number from a doctor, and she also refused to speak. I blocked her. Did I do it right?
14Life is brief, but we must know how to enjoy.
60Now disbelieve in human love. I was disappointed in family, co-workers, and acquaintances. I think people have stopped loving. What do you think?
15Life is only beautiful when we follow our dreams.
61When we have absolutely nothing, who cares about us?
16In the desert, you can find the answers you need.
62The issue of rejections stirred my mind a lot. I suffered for years. But thanks to the good father, I recovered. However, in matters of relationship, I will always be suspicious. I do not want to suffer anymore. Do you understand?
17We all have an angel and a demon.
63Do you believe in premonitions? Sometimes I think I am going to have one love in my whole life. Then I ask myself: Why only one? I see no logic in that message.
18When others hurt you with words, forgive.
64If you have a job, you might lose. If you have a company, you can go broke. If you have a love, it can leave you. What is safe in life?
19It is wise to master your dark side so that good may emerge.
65Fight for your personal freedom
20Follow your own intuitions.
66Free yourself from fear
21Do not speak ill of the life of others.
67We have to be born again as many times as it takes.

69Does any love survive time and distance?
24Everything is allowed, but not everything has morality.
70You have not been with me in my worst moments. Therefore, it will not be with me in my best moments. So what? Would you tell anyone that?
25He who will seek, may find.
71If an angel said to you the following: Unfortunately, you will not be happy in love, but you will have financial prosperity. He will be an extraordinarily rich person. So what? Would you be satisfied or cry over your bad luck in love?
26The supreme happiness is to recognize that we have self-love.
72It is better to be poor and have freedom. It is better to do charity than to gather goods. For me, having a home, having food, and taking trips is enough. What about you? Would they rather be rich or poor?
27What brings us comfort in life is success
73People make mistakes with me, and I apologize. Is that correct?
28It is good to make life what you want.
74It is foolish to gather goods. You die and take nothing. What do you think?
29Life brings us great lessons.
75I always help people. But no one seeks to help me. Does this happen to you?
30When I find true love, I will set you free.
76I see that all human love is false. One guy told me he does not like smelly people. In response, I said yes, I love myself. So what? Do you really love the smelly? Or is your love fake?
31Most men are not romantic.
