love very real

After watching the movie "The Last Station", it tells about the last life of the great Russian writer Leo Tolstoy in his last years. There are lofty defenses of Leo Tolstoyists and hysterical defenses of his wife Sophia. It is also a defense of him, one in the name of human beings and the other in the name of love, but it brought him endless quarrels. In the end, he chose tranquility and loneliness, and secretly left his wife who had lived together for 48 years, but Before his death, what he cared about was Sophia, and what he was calling for was his wife, not his writings, not the well-being of mankind. This is probably the most authentic side of human beings, and no matter how lofty ideals are, they are no match for love. It really took my breath away!
