love and loneliness

For a long time at the beginning, the male protagonist was walking alone. There was no scenery along the way, and he had no intention to look at the scenery. He was just walking, without even thinking about it, just walking.
Knowing that his younger brother found him, he said he was going to find where he started, Paris, Texas. The male protagonist even bought the land because he believed that it was in that place that the combination of parental love had the beginning of his life.
Leaving the original life, perhaps it is to find the meaning of existence! Returning to his son again, the protagonist begins to regain the memory of 4 years ago, why the loving couple finally separated, and why the wife left him.
Later, in that phone booth, listening to his wife's voice, the protagonist slowly recalled the past, when he was young and infatuated, he lost himself, was attached or possessed, and finally when his lover could not bear it, he began to flee, and he also began to flee. Maybe he loves her too much and has become a shackle, maybe he doesn't know how to love him, he chose to be on the road, maybe he will understand when he walks on the road.
