What drives Frank?
Would you say?
"Why does a rose symbolize love if a rose always dies?"
Well, some say that diamonds are forever.
"Would you rather get a rose or a diamond?" would seem to be the relevant question. (If there is a relevant question to be answered here.)
Frank can only offer roses (if that). I think that is the point.
Um...what?
"Why does a rose symbolize love if a rose always dies?"

As in what keeps him going?
I think it's in this nature and personality.
The dream to get to America always made him fight on, and also the need to not become like his father, as he saw the other side of what happened when his father left.
