In life, love and marriage are two eternal themes. Reading Anna Karenina again recently, I can't help but think about a thought-provoking question: what is the relationship between marriage and love? And the tragedy of Anna Karenina's life may be able to give us some inspiration.
1. Love is not the whole story of marriage.
When I was young, I often felt sorry for Anna's tragic end. At that time, I always asked myself: if Anna and Volensky had not met, what would her life have been like? However, when I opened the book again, I found that the tragedy of Anna's life was not just because of her love affair with Volensky. In fact, the essence of marriage is not only love, but also a responsibility and commitment.
Anna was born into an aristocratic family and had an enviable life. However, her marriage was not done out of love, but was arranged by her aunt. In her opinion, she married a man who was more than twenty years older than herself, and this was something she should accept. And such a marriage is destined to be a tragedy, because without the foundation of love, marriage is like a shell without a soul.
2. A happy marriage needs to go both ways.
A happy marriage is not accidental, it requires both husband and wife to work together. In "Anna Karenina", the most enviable thing is the marriage of Levin and Ji Di. Although the two went through some twists and turns before marriage, the two started a happy marriage through hard work. The reason why their marriage can be so happy is because they know how to cherish each other and know how to give for each other.
3. A loveless marriage is the beginning of pain.
In real life, it is not difficult to find that the feelings between many couples have become indifferent. Their former love is gone, leaving only ordinary life and trivial quarrels. Such a marriage is destined to be an unhappy beginning. Just like Anna, she once had a good life and an enviable marriage, but ended up with a tragic end. This is because she does not realize that the essence of marriage is not only love, but the relationship that needs to be managed and maintained by both husband and wife.
4. Advice for young people.
How should young people deal with marriage? First of all, it is necessary to realize that love is not the whole story of marriage, but a process of mutual respect, mutual understanding, and mutual growth. Secondly, you should know how to cherish your partner and give each other enough care and love. Finally, one should learn to manage and maintain one's marital relationship and work hard for each other's happiness.
Anna Karenina is not only a love**, but also an apocalypse about marriage and life philosophy. When facing marriage, you need to realize that love is not everything, and more importantly, how to manage and maintain the relationship. You should cherish your partner and work together to create a better future. I read "Anna Karenina", and I also understood the truth of marriage.
