Old Ghost Reflection

This story is about a guy, named Jim and his lover Ellen.
Jim should not have abandoned his lover; his thinking was not mature when he was young. But after that, he realized that he was wrong and went back to search for Ellen, his lover. But due to the illness Ellen had, Ellen was on the brink of death, and died when founded by Jim. Jim was regretful and lived on until he was 76 and die.
I feel that this is a very nice and true story. The story is very touching and real, although it was quite sad at the end. The story had good details as the author made a good description on the things and the characters. But there were some description which made me confused and I don’t think that it is necessary. But still the description of the things and the characters made the story came to ‘life’. It enables the reader to see what is going on due to the excellent description in the story. I also feel that this story is rather simple and easy to understand; also it is easy to guess what is going to happen at the end of the story.
After reading this, I also feel that we should not take things for granted. We must learn to treasure the people around us when they are alive, but not when they are dead.
