So many spammers on Goodreads. First of all I should tell you, the spammers that most of my books have been given 5 star ratings and reviews by famous authors whose profiles are not hidden like yours.It is obvious non of you have read my books. I advise you to read books before commenting them. I am a humanist and my writings are spiritual and touching hearts and souls.

I got lost in my thoughts. I was thinking about life, ''the pillow on the hospital bed could let anyone's head rest on it. The air, which is always generous to every living being, could enter anyone's lungs through a lung ventilator.''
