The beauty of life is more abundant than love

Recently, I watched "The English Patient" and "Far From the Crowd". These two films use different expressions to interpret love, one bitter and the other sweet. Many loves in reality are lost to secular marriages, fetters or temptations, because they are not what love is, but wrong or fake. Fortunately, love won in these two films. Whether Hardy's stories are sad or happy, the English countryside scenery he describes is always beautiful and intoxicating, because the beauty of life is more abundant than love.
