a walk to remember ..

October 31, 2009

 

hello. i will speak in english again, o’ryt? ^_^ 

its halloween today. HAPPY HALLOWEEN UNSEEN CREATURES! lol. but im not yet gonna post bout our halloween party because the pictures my cousin took last night are not yet uploaded.. so that would be later. hehe.

  

i just finished reading “a walk to remember” by Nicholas Sparks. honestly, im really loving Nicholas, he’s such a good writer. (NOTE: click on the link to download the ebook. Ü)

the book a walk to remember is 90% different from the actual movie. it just have the same characters, and the story about Jamie (Mandy Moore) dying, and Landon (Shane West) being a kinda bad boy. but the details, and events are uber different, but that’s okay, because both are amazing in their own way.

the book is much inspiring though. (though i love seeing the movie because of Shane West! lol) it really shows the beauty and kindness of one’s heart, of Jamie’s heart. and how she could change, inspire and influence tons of people. 

there were scenes and lines i particularly like most.. one, is when Jamie asked Landon if he ever wonder why things turn out the way they do.. because she knows its part of the Lord’s plan, but sometimes, she just cant understand the message of it. then Landon answered that “sometimes, we are not meant to understand them all the time, sometimes we just have to have faith” 

see what Jamie had done to Landon? he now understand thigs that are nothing to him before. and that’s very nice. and in fact, i learned from her too, through readin this story.

and another of course, the famous Corinthians verse that Jamie asked Landon to read to her.. it was read on their wedding too.

“Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never
boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take
offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other
people’s sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to
excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.”

 

a lot of people will say that this story ended sad because Jamie died, and Landon was left on his own. but the truth is, it had a beautiful ending, because a lot of people learned from Jamie. she is really like the angel from the story, that saved us all. she didnt only changed Landon, but she has changed a lot of other people too. and that’s what make the ending special and, yeah, HAPPY.
