One day, Fermina Daza, in despair, shouted to Juvenal Urbino: "Have you not noticed that I am not happy at all?" and he took it off with his characteristic gesture Glasses, tepid, drowned her with a puddle of water in his childlike eyes, and just said a word that made her feel the full weight of his insufferable wisdom: "You want Always remember that for a loving couple, the most important thing is not happiness, but stability." From the initial lonely time of widowhood, she started, what hidden in these words was not the despicable threat she thought at first, It is a moon gem that has brought countless happy times to the two of them.

thought it would be cool to have the ability to travel through time and space, but after watching the movie, I was already crying. Only then did I really understand that this sentence from García Márquez is really a holy book in a marriage.

1. The other half is the only person who can accompany him throughout his life, and no child can replace such a role.
In the end, although the daughter also has the ability to travel through time and space and can control herself, she has never been able to make up for the loneliness and loss in her mother's heart.

2. Life is so lonely, so we need a kindred.
His marriage proposal was touching and revealed the essence of marriage. We need someone with whom we can share our lives, to spend a long time.





3. Love can give us courage to face the fear of the unknown ahead
. Henry made the decision to get sterilized alone for Clair's sake. Maybe from Clair's point of view it wasn't what she wanted the most, but it was a good decision for both of them. Only when you love someone so deeply can you face the fear of death alone, bear the pressure of survival alone, and face difficult decisions alone.


You have to believe that there must be a lover in the world, whether you are surrounded by light and overwhelmed by applause, or you are walking alone on a cold street and soaked by heavy rain, whether it is a little snow drifting In the early morning, or in the twilight scorched by the heat wave, he will definitely pass through the surging crowds in this world, he will walk past them one by one, and walk towards you with a heart beating hard. He will surely walk towards you and hold on to you with the warmth in his heart and the heavy love in his eyes. He can't wait to come to you, if he's young, he'll hug you like a naughty child grabbing his own toys and refusing to share it with others; if he's no longer young, he'll hug you like a thorny thorn Returning hunter, light a bonfire beside you, and then hug you to sleep tired and relieved. He will surely find you. You have to wait.
