First Loves Never Die Apparently

So I just love the movie "The Notebook". There's something about that movie that blows away any romantic movie I've ever seen. I've seen the movie 3 times and could watch it everyday if time or my boyfriend permitted :)

I am in my last week of summer school and I decided to pick up the book "The Notebook" to read it before fall starts. Here is a line I read today.

"My daddy used to tell me that the first time you fall in love, it will change your life forever, and no matter how hard you try you will never again be the same".

This line has so many meanings. Think about your first time. I don't mean the guys you dated for 3 months and realized he wasn't "the one." I mean the first one that gave you that gut wrenching, heart aching, bone chilling love.......

My first love. 6 years of turmoil, heart ache, heart pleasing, I thought would never end. Well it ended. I now have a daughter to raise forever from that love. So true, I'll never be the same again......

The Notebook is one of my all time favorite movies too! Oh I love it!

It's true, YOU change after your first love. Missy is such a great kid- you are really blessed to have her!

I've never seen The Notebook, but everyone tells me it's great. You're right, though...your first love changes you forever.

Love the book! Actually of of N. Sparks books are good and I'm not a fan of reading unless my arm is twisted and actually have to...so enjoy.

I read the book before seeing the movie- both will really make you think about love and what true love is... and how love can hurt so very much.

Welcome to the blogging world, by the way!

The Notebook is a good book (I haven't seen the movie). And love that results in a child will definitely never leave you the same.
