How many roads must a woman walk down?

Alice reminds me of my mother's good friend. That aunt grew up in a wealthy family, got married in her twenties, and worked as a housewife at home. Her husband later became an official and was promoted step by step. She knew that her husband was messing around with flowers outside, but the family was still connected. When she was in her forties, her husband suddenly filed for divorce, and her son in the third grade of elementary school threw it to her and went away alone.
Auntie has never worked. She graduated from high school and has been staying at home with her husband and children. Suddenly, everything collapsed.
She looked for jobs everywhere, worked as a kindergarten aunt, nanny in the United States, dormitory, and raised her son with difficulty until now.
When she was old, she began to wander. She left the city where she had lived all her life, followed her son to Wuhan, and then went to Guangzhou. Wherever she met an old man in his 70s, she found a partner to live with.
The ex-husband was terminally ill. When he was seriously ill, he thought of her well. He regretted getting back together and wanted to see his son.
Unhappy retribution.
She never knew life would be so difficult until the accident happened, and she would get through it all.
Alice is like countless ordinary women. When she has nothing and becomes the only support for her children, she will become the strongest person in the world.
When I was young, I always thought that nothing major would happen in my life. I listened to other people's stories and lamented that I would never be able to do that. When I look back, I am a little scared, but also a little doubtful, how did you get through so many difficult years?
In fact, life is inherently trivial, ups and downs are placed on each day, and the next day wakes up to a new day. My father always said that nothing in the world cannot be solved. I don't understand, but now I seem to understand a little bit. It's always difficult to look back and see the road in the past, but in it, there is no hurdle to step forward. It's just a matter of time.
Scorsese was young at the time, and yet he knew women and life so well. Alice's noisy child, unreliable boyfriend, embarrassed expression, crying when she can't find a job, everything is so meticulous. It will always be over, life is difficult, but like running water, as long as there is a healthy body, it will flow. She still found friends and had someone who loved her.
The home of man is family. '
Pushkin was right "If life deceives you, don't be sad, don't be impatient, calm days are needed in gloomy days, believe it, happy days will come."
