I`m introducing "the patience and caring in the lady of shalott". This story takes place near a place called Camelot. There is also a river which inside has an island, inhere lives in a little castle The Lady of Shalott. this lady was cursed for some mysterious reason, the thing is that she was cursed. So she had a mirror an obviously this mirror gives backwards the image in it. So now that you had already entered in context, we can not advance without having this two words; patience and caring.
