    The closer he gets to good-bye, the more he seems to feel we are all creatures in the same forest. What we take, we must replenish.

    If I want to describe what people will undergo after damaging the nature in the future, I can use the sentence 'what we take, we must replenish'. And I will keep this sentence in mind and protect our nature as much as possible. 

    In this culture, it's so important to find a loving relationship with someone because so much of the culture does not give you that.

    They don't know what they want in a partner. They don't know who they are themselves - so how can they know who they're marrying.

    When I am getting older, someone who care for me is worrying about my marriage and is eager to introduce some nice men to me. They hope I will choose from one of them and settle down the most important thing - marriage- in my life. But I dislike it very much. Because they don't understand me and can't know what I am pursuing, they choose my future husband according to the normal standards - to have a good job, whose parents are nice and have a big house. Those standards look nice but superficial. How can they know who I am marrying? I just want to marry with the right person. So I will keep finding till the end.

    There are a few rules I know to be true about love and marriage.

    If you don't respect the other person, if you don't know how to compromise, if you can't talk openly about what goes on between you, and if you don't have a common set of rules in life, you're gonna have a lot of trouble. Your values must be alike. 

    Your belief in the importance of your marriage.

    Personally, I think marriage is a very important thing to do, and you're missing a hell of a lot of you don't try it.

    Love each other and cherish.

    Marriage is not the symbol of absolute happiness and good things. It should be the symbol of same values and the ability to communicate. I do agree with Morrie's opinions on marriage.

    Here's what I mean by building your own little subculture. I don't mean you disregard every rule of your community. I don't go around naked, for example. I don't run through red lights. The little things, I can obey. But the big things - how we think, what we value - those you must choose yourself. You can't let anyone - or any society determine those for you.

    Every society has its own problems. The way to do it, I think, isn't to run away. You have to work at creating your own culture.
