Random Quote
"To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity. We are given senses to receive our information within. With our own eyes we see, and with our own skin we feel. With our intelligence, it is intended that we understand. But each person must puzzle it out for himself or herself."

Reader Ratings & Reviews
Eveline & Envy
A lot of efforts were spent in the psychotic dilemma while the ending is simply yet another dilemma, though an outspoken one. Her freedom should not be exploited by the envy of her family's duty; however, I suspect this is not the true reason why she chooses to stay. She wishes for love, which will subsidiary grant her freedom as well. She simply does not know herself thoroughly and it's Frank she doubts hence. Silly lass!
