11/9 I was so stressed when I came back home that I didn't have any energy left to practice speaking. The reason why I felt so spent was that the attitude of my senior worker.

Reading the excerpt from Karen Van Der Zee’s book “A Secret Sorrow” brings to mind a person who is very dear to me. I’m sure there are many people out there who may know someone in the same predicament, so this scenario is by no means unique. However, it is very close to my heart and shows that sometimes there can be happy endings, or that fairy tales can come true.
