Kitty's spiritual evolution M. Sinitsyna

Different situations in Kitty`s life made her responsible for her life and people around her. She married Walter thinking that she would be happy with him, because of his social position and his money. But she did not love him not a bit. She could not emagine that it was a big mistake.  She understood it only when they came to Hong Kong and she met Charlie Townsend. He seemed very clever and handsome man. Kitty liked that he was a gentleman and took part in the high society life and sport games. He could be funny and spoke about serious things.  He differed from her husband very much. Walter was a reserved and practical man. He thought about his career in bacteriology. He did not like any parties, he prefered reading and spending his free time sitting in his arm-chair. He seemed very boring to Kitty...  When Kitty understood that Walter knew everything about her adultery she was glad, because she thought that they would be happy with Charlie. But Townsend did not want to divorce with his wife. He broke Kitty`s heart. She understood how selfish, self-seeking and callous he was.  One day when she worked in the convent in Mei-tan-fu it occured to her that she had neither thought of Charles Townsend nor dreamt of him for a week. She could think of him with indifference. She didn't love him any more. She thought she would die when he failed her. She thought life had nothing to offer but misery.  But she was wrong. Great changes happened in Kitty`s life. She understood that there were more important things in life than Charlie. Such as: work in the convent and help to people, her family and her future baby. Her adultery and dissapointment in love made her cleverer and she understood the real values of life.
