The Last Song

Hello blog,
Long time no talk...
I've been kind of anti-computer the last week or so.. I'm bored with having to check so many social networks. People should be trying harder to communicate in person. The internet is such a wonderful invention, but I also believe it does a lot of bad to our society, maybe not neccesarily bad... but it causes laziness. Anyways... I am done ranting... for now :).

I just finished reading 'The Last Song' by Nicholas Sparks... wow, what a truly beautiful book. And it really wasn't the typical mushy... but still beautiful book you expect from Sparks. Oh, don't get me wrong I still cried like I do after reading everyone of his books and seeing everyone of the movies... but this was much different. It was about family,and hard times, and growing up, and second chances, and yes there was a little romance. But it was a truly beautiful and heart-warming story. Two thumbs up, there are few authors that can captivate me from beginning to end... but Nicholas Sparks is definitely one of them.

"Sometimes you have to be a part from people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes you love them more." -The Last Song

"She was a stranger now, but she'd been a friend once, and that was enough for him." -The Last Song


"God, he suddenly understood, was love in its purest form, and in these last months with his children, he had felt His touch as surely as he had heard the music spilling from Ronnie's hands." -The Last Song

"In a lifetime of mistakes, you two are the greatest things that have ever happened to me." -The Last Song

"Life, he realize, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it's in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile." -The Last Song

"He stared at her, knowing with certainty that he was falling in love. He pulled her close and kissed her beneath a blanket of stars, wondering how on earth he'd been lucky enough to find her." -The Last Song

"At times, he even admitted that he'd been more an observer of the world than a participant in it..." -The Last Song

"I call it God Light, because it reminds me of heaven. Every time the light shines through the window we built or any window at all, you'll know I'm right there with you, okay? That's going to be me. I'll be the light in the window." -The Last Song

I underline any quote in a book that particularly grabs me, and this one had quite a few. I hope that someday I will be able to grab a readers attention with my words.
