-Hello! I'm Valerie Evans. Do you want to buy this book?
-Hello! I think so. Would you recommend it?
Why do you say it's good?
Yes, of course. I read it the day before yesterday, it is very good; in fact, people come every day and buy it.
Did you say a metaphor? Which?
It has a good metaphor. What's your name?
Yes, I did. It's just that our lives are a lot like a drawbridge.
How is that?
There are the big ships, that no matter how much your drawbridge is raised, they won't be able to leave your life, your river, without touching you, without hurting you.
Also small boats. Your acquaintances can leave without you getting up, without touching you.
There are the big ships, that no matter how much your drawbridge is raised, they won't be able to leave your life, your river, without touching you, without hurting you.
Each person has their own circle of friends and all of them are a boat on the river of your life. You are the bridge and every time someone leaves, you must stand up to let them go.
Nice to meet you too, Valerie Evans. Welcome to the river of my life
Raise your drawbridge and make room for new ships for those who really love you.
