Wow! Your stories left me pinned to my seat, it's like reading three posts in one each movie. ha ha!

In the first one being at boarding school was very hard as it's not easy at all to be away from home, away from family. It was a prison but one that taught you to appreciate family more than ever, as well as recognizing your parents' efforts to stand up in hard times. This situation strengthened your character, your sense of responsibility and independence. Every cloud has a silver lining.

In the second quasi-cop story, Carol was never a good person, appearances can be deceiving, nothing can be that good without you having to pay the price. Fortunately, someone who loves you somewhere in the Universe took you by the hand and pulled you away from that bad company. You will never forget that story.

In the third story, the sale of a house took 7 long years, indicating that the general economy was not doing well and the pandemic came in to make that cloud even darker. But it's all over now, it's not worth complaining, because there are so many shortages and poverty around us that we are often reluctant to see. There is always someone who could be worse off.

I loved reading you, you have left great teachings with your life experiences and you have sown a halo of light and hope in the midst of this chaotic world.

Greetings and I send you a big hug.
