Pain, Rhuan decided, did not simply hurt. Pain also exhausted a person, sapped his soul, thinned his spirit. Worse, pain was tedious.

About This Quote

Rhuan’s life in the village was marked by an absence of pain. What he missed were all the things he never knew when he was young. He missed the excitement of travelling to new places, the thrill of meeting new people, and the fun of discovering something new. When Rhuan moved to the city, he went out with his friends, had fun at parties, danced the night away, and all with a smile on his face.

But with time, Rhuan’s life changed. He began missing what life was like in his village. For one thing, he missed the simple things of life.

He missed the games they played after school and before dinner was served. He missed their jokes and their laughter. He missed making friends with kids in his class and playing together in after-school sports teams.

And above all, Rhuan missed love
