Where will our love and ideals be placed?

Staying alone in the hotel in the middle of the night watching "Ambition of the Earth", I love such romantic movies. I love the women and men in them, young, lively, dreamy, full of courage and energy. I love their setbacks and perseverance, I love their shared dream about the Oklahoma farm,

when we were young, were we ever so powerful, full of courage, persevering to love someone and pursue us dream. In the worst of times, only dreams can feed our time. When we are most helpless, as long as we have love, we have the courage to face the whole world.
At that time, we also believed that there is a person who can carry all our yearning for love, and
also believe that there is a place that can carry all our ideals.
But why, one day, our love is no longer just love, those unrelated doors are equal, status, power and money, everyone's eyes, cars and houses, how can the opinions of three aunts and six mothers become our love?
But why, one day, our ideals no longer belong to us. Where have we left our ideals, why do we spend all day for our children, for a meager salary, for the so-called future and future, a job that we don’t like very much, and socializing with a group of people we don’t like? All our time, let our ideals go nowhere.
