A Love Story

sacrifices because of love. This was very well read by the narrator. I really enjoyed the story and have forgotten about it for way too long. Everyone should know the story. and everyone should be so kind to sacrifice things for love and making someone happy. if more people gave Christmas presents. Even if it was the littlest thing from the dollar store. it would mean so much more than just nothing. basically that's the moral for the story. is sacrificing something of yours for someone else because you love them.
