I take care of other life matters by myself, and I am used to feeling very busy.

Thank you for your care and encouragement. ”

"It's good for everyone to communicate and maintain health. "When I retired, I wrote: I have worked in the revolution for 40 years, spent my old age with a clean sleeve, the laws of nature are unstoppable, and I am indifferent to fame, fortune and fortune and longevity. She never cared about personal gains and losses, and still lives in a third-floor apartment without an elevator in the seventies and eighties of the last century. ”
