I want to be Jane

"They will all achieve what they want, but they have to go through some hardships, and they will all have a happy ending."
The first time I read "Pride and Prejudice" was in junior high school. The fastest book to read. Later, watched two versions of the book in the movie. I believe that no girl can refuse Jane Austen. Today, the love, marriage and family issues she talked about are still applicable today.
Because I watched "Pride and Prejudice" first, when I watched "Sense and Sensibility", I always inadvertently thought of "Pride and Prejudice" and then "Becoming Jane Austen". I have to say that in Austin's Deep down, there is still an unfinished complex.
After watching Austen's work and then watching "Becoming Jane Austen", I couldn't help but burst into tears at the end. At first he said "Jane, I"m yours, I"m yours, heart and soul." After 20 years, seeing you again, he said it was an honor to meet you, Miss Austen. This is my daughter; Li was late, he snored during her reading, and 20 years later, when we met again, she made an exception to read his own book for his daughter, this time, he stood opposite her, stared silently, and applauded her. .....20 years ago, the lush lover, the windy boy, the flower-like girl, and now the temples are gray and old, he has achieved a great success, his wife and children are complete, she is also famous in the literary world, but she has never married, He named his eldest daughter Jane, as a memory of Austin forever... So, this is the ending that belongs to Austin, it's not good at all, right, and sister Austin's fiancé also died in a foreign country Yellow fever, my sister never married.
In the story, Elizabeth and her sister Jane, Eleanor and her sister Marianne, all had a happy ending. As she puts it, "They'll get what they want, a great consummation, a glorious marriage."
Most of Austen's works express that kind of implicit and forbidding emotion. This kind of forbearance is reflected in Darcy, in Elizabeth, in Colonel Brandon, in Edward, in Eleanor, and in reality she herself is the same, out of consideration for Tom's reputation, she chose to leave. Because I am a 100% simple emotional identity person, I like a sentence: some feelings need to be restrained. Because I always believe that the best love is the time, the right place, the people and the lack of the same, I always insist that true love is a kind of long-lasting forbearance, until this kind of forbearance gives birth to a consciousness at a certain moment. , tell yourself that there is no one else but this one. Marianne is a rare representative of Austen's unrestrained, bold, daring to love and hate women, but after a heart-wrenching lesson, she began to examine herself and began to compare herself and her sister who is right, sense or sensibility? So, I like Austen's characters and love the most. They're not dramatic, but they're long-lasting.
Austin insisted on the supremacy of love all his life. Many love philosophy books or various love consultant experts would say: girl, this is right, because you will wait for your prince, and what you have to do before that is to make yourself good enough. In my opinion, Austin has achieved the pinnacle of women, who dares to say that she is not excellent? However, after missing Tom, she did not encounter love again, or she closed the door on this. In short, her excellence did not make her meet the person she was willing to follow her whole life. Unmarried, lonely and old, at least in that era, it was really commendable. Maybe you will say that she doesn't need to be like this, so people who are too idealistic will eventually lose to reality, and obsession with something may not get what they want. Consummation, but who can say who is better? Look at your choice...
Put your regrets in your heart, and write your consummation to others. Life is already so difficult, so don't expose some things. If I can, I also want to be Jane, I want to be Jane. Her nobility, sincerity, passion, unmoved; her reason, her beliefs, the decisions she made for her life. I really like her attitude towards true love: true love is never forced by time, money, system and class, let alone life.
