waiting and hoping

"There is no happiness or misfortune in the world, there are only comparisons of situations. Only those who have experienced difficulties can feel the supreme happiness. You must experience death to feel the joy of life. Live and live happily, the children I cherish in my heart. Never forget that until God reveals the future to mankind, all human wisdom is contained in two words: waiting and hope." This passage is the connotation of the entire novel. When I read it, this sentence shocked my heart.

Just wait and hope.

Being able to read a good book is one of the indispensable blessings in life... The only thing I can't accept is the melancholy of being separated from a book after reading it... It's like a close friend... A bosom friend that I finally meet on the road of life. Although I am extremely grateful... One day we will have to travel far away... A good book is like a good friend... It is also difficult to let go. But when I think back to the joy I had during the reading process, and the mood that fluctuated with the wave-like plot... I can still gain a sense of satisfaction... I hope that when I pick up this book again many years later, I can still maintain the feeling of being moved when I first saw it...! This feeling is just like the feeling that the whole book brings to me... There is always hope...

waiting and hoping

It took me a long time to read the whole book, and the ending "Waiting and Hope" deeply penetrated my heart. It is the core of the entire article and the entire spiritual sustenance of the protagonist of the novel. As a person who suffered great misfortune, I can understand his crazy revenge mentality, but I was shocked by his tolerance and generosity in the end. In my opinion, the fate of the targets of revenge is death, but Dantès can give them a chance to repent and live. He is really a beautiful and noble person who should be treated well by the people around him and the world. Be a good person and work hard to live. There are many unfortunate people, but you are one of the lucky ones.

It makes me feel the same. In the relationship between people, the person who can break you may be the insignificant person around you. Some details of life can make the villains around you jealous and resentful, thus bringing disaster to yourself. The human heart is the scariest thing.

Human desire is invincible. Sometimes your desire is just that you can do anything. Just like the letter Napoleon received when he was about to go, he was framed by a villain and sent to prison. This is to ruin a person's youth for one thing.
