I always hurt the one I love the most

After watching this movie, I suddenly felt that "love" is really a heavy word.

People who obviously love each other always hurt each other. The deeper the love, the deeper the hurt. In many cases, what people lack is not love, but not knowing how to love and how to express love. Carl's father, doesn't he love Carl's mother, doesn't he love Carl? He was hurt so deeply by his wife, but he was full of praise for her in front of his son; Carl did something wrong, but he didn't admit his mistake, he just used the Bible to influence him, and he would feel guilty even if he lost his temper a little. Where did he go wrong? He doesn't know how to express his love; he doesn't understand how important it is to express love to his son; he doesn't understand how much his son needs to know his love.

In this world, it is not enough to have love in the heart, otherwise there will not be so many misunderstandings and so many tragedies that make people feel sad. In many cases, it may be more important to communicate, express, and try to understand others and let others understand you.

Just like that girl, she was afraid of Karl at first, but fell in love with him in the end. She was afraid because she didn't understand him, and loved because she finally understood him.

    Wait until I look back to see how Steinbeck's obsession with animals and places is reflected in the original. James Dean's blurry eyes are really eye-catching.

    It was so distressing to look at, his eyes were always dodging, and his body was always shrinking into a ball. Simple and fragile like a child, with numbness and despair on the surface, but silently making plans in his heart to please his father. How a person's life will develop is his own choice, but first, if he is a person. Those who are not loved by others, do not dare to love others, are full of pity in their eyes, and are full of despair in their hearts, such a person cannot be called an independent person in the first place, let alone choose life. What kind of life do you talk about with a child, don't you see him only in his eyes?
