The Notebook

Well, I really don't know what to say. A truly amazing video that has left me with more than enough questions about life. The scariest part was all the parallels that I could draw to my own life, a sign of a very great movie.

Basically, the single most important idea behind the movie (in my opinion), is never giving up. Noah fought right to the end to get Allie back. It wasn't a question for him, he knew that he loved her, and did whatever he could to get her back. He never once forgot who he loved, and who he was trying to get back. Everything he did in his life, he did for Allie.

And that makes me ask the question; is that what I should have done? Is that what I should do? Is it better to fight for what you want more than anything in the world, or to let it slip away easily to avoid more pain?

Or am I happy to spend the rest of my life where I am right now?




That's why I didn't sleep last night.
