Do not forget the original intention

Human nature is good at the beginning. It is really important to not forget the original intention. McGovich used his hard-earned money of herding sheep to fund Pip to go to London to become a gentleman, because only in this way can he be more compatible with Estella, and the relationship between various characters is reversed. , pip was shocked and denied that he was funded by criminals, and pip, who became a "gentleman", also disliked the brother-in-law who came from afar to visit pip in London. It's really sad. The brother-in-law of the father and friend is the only decent character in this film, but no matter what, he can't change his true self and return to the original intention. There is no free lunch in the world. Great future is bought with Lone Star, blood, tears.

    I like the Dickens story that I know well for the same reason. It can only be so... I also found that the old maid is really suitable for the gothic style~
