When it comes to sincerity, sometimes I get confused. I don't know what complete sincerity is, is it love at first sight or a whim? From Mildred's point of view, love at first sight for Monty is also impulsive (of course there are many reasons, middle class, famous, and helpful) but she believes that it is true love, at least, that paragraph is convinced !
The constant emergence of contradictions reflects people's selfish heart, and the selfish side of people reflects what people yearn for in their hearts. When the life you long for cannot be satisfied by the other party, you will leave or let the other party leave. Either m treat Bert or Monty!
Maybe this is life. Only God can do it, and there are no distractions in the heart, mortals maybe! I can't do it no matter how hard I try.
Maybe if you really don't do anything for anything, you won't feel pain!
Each of us is obsessed with our own aspirations. Some people can find it early, some people may be late, and some people may have a limited degree of attachment. But in any case, our attachments have brought us joy and pain.
Maybe this is in a limited life, limited everything. Things we can strive to change that are completely impossible to change. Like "Hemingway said: 'This world is a good place and worth fighting for.' - I believe the second half."
