    A Love for Life

    For me, ‘Fanella’, the main character of this story, looked like a woman who pursuits her own happiness. I really impressed by her that she longed to adopt a girl and nurture a child by herself. Moreover, she overcame every predicament that she faced, to raise her child Ellie. In this aspect, she looks like a rational person. She tried to achieve her old hope and endeavored to maintain it by logical ways. However, she is not just a rational person. She is emotional too. She could not conceal her love for Rod, even though he is a married man. She was honest with her emotion, and I think that her honesty could make love with Rod. As a result, through this story, I really realized that woman who is frank about what she desire can be successful in their…
