  5. Quotations Do you know what you have made me? You made me fancy living. Memory constitutes our true identity, it helps us understanding who we are and also who we will be. I spent all my life with him, he was with me also when he wasn't physically.In my mind I used to sleep and wake up with him. For all these years I have never stopped loving him, it was a beautiful thing but unbearable too. Impossible loves never finish, they are the ones that last forever.
