The only person who can sympathize with and understand you, is you. So, be good to yourself.

'Copperfield' is my favorite of Dickens works as well. It is my understanding that it was also Dickens favorite of all his novels.

Now for the funniest part. That is, about dreamy-unrealizable, but written with great care and pain of the heart muscle, apparently. So, the main character was born, grew up, orphaned, snatched off a number of life hardships on the back of his neck, escaped from the hands of the villainous stepfather and his sister, grew up under the supervision of loving grandmothers and uncles. Was repeatedly named daisy. Oh, those English schools... Well, you understand, I hope. Went out into the world and fell in love. He quickly got married and realized that he was in a hurry. Oops. That is, one should take a strong heavy truck as a wife, but not a young girl fluttering like a moth, and not plowing on a British farm for five shillings, making candy out of thin air and bringing her husband a pipe and slippers in her worn teeth. And he fell in love and foolishly got married. Got it, in general. And after all, what is most offensive, he honestly tried to harness his young wife into domestic slavery. But it didn't. How do you lure a moth? No way.Therefore, he kind of reconciled and honestly endured, it is important - that not long, until the cruel fate and so on, to finally ring with the right woman with all the necessary qualities. This is where I just started crying. Not over the leader. Above the author, I confess. However, I'm lying. Above the author, who, well, was not lucky at all. For some reason, fate refused to be cruel and stubbornly did not talk; the wife refused to go to a psychiatric hospital and simply moved to a different address; the whole country, and not just neighbors, enjoyed the family drama of the famous writer with pleasure. Which is a little comforting. Not exactly, just probably. The ability to write books. After all, you can write anything you want, since the universe does not want to throw a gift under the Christmas tree. And cherish the heart. And get paid. And bronzed, become a classic. To punish more biographers who brazenly delve into real facts, and not into book fantasies. But ... here again fate categorically refuses ...
