Love is just the icing on the cake

The oil painting-like countryside scenery, gorgeous British costumes, dignified lady's etiquette, elegant country dance, beautiful music, all of these, no matter what kind of story is played, are charming enough.

And it deduces the story of Jane Austen, the author of the great "Pride and Prejudice", a female writer who has never married but relies on writing to support herself and describe her emotions delicately, an independent and confident poor girl with a brain, and these It was a mistake at the time.

The pursuit of a perfect spiritual world, no matter whether the real world is digging potatoes or feeding pigs, what can satisfy her is only the fascinated love, the most insignificant love that is despised by the world, and it is said that the marriage that is accomplished for it is A wrong love. It seems that it is difficult for people to live a good life simply by their own efforts. Everyone is waiting for the inheritance, status and wealth of the family. For love, they will lose all this.

JANE, what moved me was not that she refused the get-rich-quick marriage proposal. If he didn't come back, maybe she would bow down to wealth, power and reality like other girls and marry a rich man. It's not that she is willing to run away with him, this is probably what every woman who is carried away by love will do. But she left him resolutely, just because she couldn't drag down a person she loves, there are too many people to rely on him, that is his responsibility that can't be abandoned, if abandoned like this, she will not be happy, but will only feel guilty. Devouring and driving mad, she is a sane and intelligent woman, no doubt, and this is doomed to her tragedy and misfortune.

She paid homage to this love with a lifetime of loneliness, but he gave his daughter the same name as her. This is also like the characters in her book. After many twists and turns, there will always be a good ending. Life should be like this, and good people will be rewarded.

Remember this youth and smile, it's so beautiful.

When she sat on the warm sofa by the fireplace, on a peaceful afternoon, melodiously recited her own works, and then still got his applause and a peaceful smile, this is a happy ENDING, I am sure, all choices ,this is correct.

Maybe youth is just a splendid firework, a wonderful rise, bloom, light up the entire night sky, and then return to peace and darkness, and this is the normal state of life, and writers are not exempt from the common, they often write dreams that are difficult for them to realize, difficult to have exciting life, an unchangeable reality. She said that works should be faithful to reality, but those reality gave her more suffering. Maybe JANE can't teach us how to have a happy marriage, but she taught us enough to understand human nature and emotion.

Love is the icing on the cake, and money is indispensable, maybe.

Maybe she is the only one who is obsessed with being a noble literati who regards love as indispensable and even the whole of life, and then cherishes that love for a lonely life, uses words to pay homage, and uses dreams to enrich... But I don't know, like a Like ordinary girls, will you be happier if you find someone who loves you and marry, and how much attachment do we have, we have been so realistic that we can’t find something that can be icing on the cake, we are just spreading silk and millet all day long, we are truly alive, That's all, right?

Many times, we don’t know who we love more, and who loves us more. We have never seen a flower that is splendid for a while, so we end our youth hastily, marry ourselves in a panic, and then convince ourselves to make ourselves happy. .

Yes, who has the courage to take love as an indispensable part of life? Even without the flowers that can be added, life will continue, right?
