No matter how many times I watch "A Walk to Remember", I always end up crying. It's the sweetest movie I've ever seen. It's the kind of love that I've been dreaming to experience; It's the kind of love that I want.
I remember watching it the first time and cried because the girl died and left the guy; I thought that was tragic. However, as my beliefs mature and the more I see and experience life and especially relationships, the more I get to reflect about the great love that the movie is projecting.
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." - 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
It's hard to find an unconditional love, a love that is so great that is always willing to put the happiness of others first. I wonder if God had planned for me to experience that kind of love or if He had planned to make me the giver. I know love should be a give and take thing; but the thought of being a part of an extraordinary love story excites me...or maybe I'm just saying that because I'm still high from the movie. lol
Anyhow, here are a few quotes that I've been keeping in mind and I hope that someday I can use these quotes to describe the kind of life I've lived.
"I don't think that we're meant to understand it all the time.
I think that sometimes we just have to have faith."
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent
people and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics and
endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others;
to leave the world a little better place than we found it,
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life breathed easier because you lived.
This is to have succeeded."
"As I go through my day, I will be mindful
of how my actions affect others.
The ripple effect of kindness moves swiftly.
I will be like the stone thrown in the water that starts the movement."
i am a reflection of HIS love ❤
