英文小作文：

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

When we are together, we often take each other for granted and forget how important the other person is in our lives. But when we are apart, we realize how much we value our relationship and how much we have missed each other while we were apart. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, because it forces us to appreciate what we have and to realize how much we care for each other. It is only when we are apart that we realize how much we need each other in our lives. So, although it may be difficult at first, I believe that distance and absence can bring us closer together and make our relationships even stronger.
