2 episodes that impressed me and thought about it:
(1) In the parking lot, the husband who wanted to break up said he was tired of cheating, "I won't give up on her, that's for sure" when the sentence was so easy and firm was said, I heard the sound of my heart sinking to the bottom, and I thought of my mother.
On the phone with my mother yesterday, it was inevitable that I would still talk about that issue. I asked, "Did Dad still meet that woman?" If two people.
Well, that's what my dad would do, a good man who everyone praises, a good man who never loses his temper.
Is it supposed to be a so-called midlife crisis, is it because mom is too strong, is it because we care too little about them...I think these are all excuses.
However, my mother, who is going through this, is still telling me, hurry up and get married, find a similar man and make do with it, two people are better than one.
If decades of relationships are not worth the so-called "destined" and "temporary happiness", if all marriages will eventually come to this step or include it, I don't want such a life.
Going back to the movie, the wife sadly says that it's not fair, men can start a new life at this age, and women... it's all over, this sentence makes me look at what I have, it's not enough, I need more Work hard to make money, watch more movies and books, exercise harder, look at the world harder, love mothers more... In case I get to this point one day, look at what I have, at least it won't be so sad.
The screenwriter is so kind, as kind as Jane Austen, the husband ended up returning to his wife, Anne ended up marrying Wentworth, real life is often a thousand times crueler than the movies, and I don't think my dad's heart will come back.
(2) In the restaurant, Grigg persuaded Jocelynn to read Ursula Le Guin's novel, "How do you know if you like it or not if you don't try it", he never read Jane Austen's novel and now likes it, because he tried it and found that his previous thoughts were Incorrect. Treating real life with such a mentality should find very different pleasures.
Maybe I should also read Jane Austin's novel.
