Appreciation of papaya

? Return the favor This idiom should be related to this idea (this idiom also comes from "suppression" in Shiya), but it is more valuable and affectionate in return. This poem is about two of a kind.

One-sided politeness cannot last. This is the custom and rule of our etiquette country. General communication is like this. This is especially true in relationships between men and women. Falling in love? Return the favor , is not just a general etiquette, but a kind of etiquette. The value of the gift itself is no longer important, but the symbolic meaning is more prominent to show mutual commitment, two of a kind.

I don't know if westerners still have this tradition, but we have read something similar in the novel The Gift of the Magi by American writer O 'Henry. Return the favor This story is full of tragedy. I don't seem to pay much attention to ceremonies now. In fact, ceremonies play a very special role in our lives, just as we can't lack sunshine and air. Ceremony is by no means an empty form, it is always associated with a specific meaning. Men and women can subtract unnecessary forms, but they are indispensable? Return the favor Ceremony.
