It's hard for me to talk to her. All I can do when I look at her is think about the day when I won't be able to. So I spend all my time at school thinking about her, wishing I could see her right then, but when I get to her house, I don't know what to say.

I love you, Elizabeth... and more than that, I like you. I enjoy spending time with you.

Everyone wanted to believe that endless love was possible. She'd believed in it once too, back when she was eighteen. But she knew that love was messy, just like life. It took turns that people couldn't foresee or even understand, leaving a long trail of regret in its wake. And almost always, those regrets led to the kinds of what if questions that could never be answered.

I will never forget the vision of Jamie walking towards me.

In a lifetime of mistakes, you two are the greatest things that have ever happened to me.

When you fall in love, love deeply. Be tough but also be open to the possibility of forgiveness.

You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter.
