But instead I stay where I am and stare up at the moon as well. And for the briefest instant, it almost feels like we're together again.

Always loved Nicholas Sparks's book :*

Told about John Tyree, as usual Nicholas Sparks's book always told us about natural beauty of character's region. John and her father was as different as two people could possibly be. so many differences between them. This story rolled until John in university. He left college and chose to joined the American army. He got a job in Germany.One day, he got a summer vacation and met with Savannah Curtis. They decided to build relationship. Long distance relathionship became a true love. Savannah was willing to waited John. John was faced with two choices, country or love? Until John returned to his hometown, and must faced the harsh reality.

It was strange, but as much as I loved her and remembered our time together, I found that as summer turned to autumn, then changed again to winter

I love you, not just for now, but for always, and I dream of the day that you'll take me in your arms again.

I slipped my hand into hers knowing that I loved her not only more than the last time I'd seen her, but more than I would ever love anyone.

And this is the letter which is the core of the story or the origin of the title (view this)

So sad in this section:

"I love you, Savannah, and I always will,” I breathed. "You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. You were my best friend and my lover, and I don't regret a single moment of it. You made me feel alive again, and most of all, you gave me my father. I'll never forget you for that. You're always going to be the very best part of me. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but I have to leave, and you have to see your husband."

Hiks John oh John!

I sold the collection because I finally understood what true love really meant. Tim had told me—and shown me—that love meant that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be. I'd left Tim's hospital room knowing that he'd been right. But doing the right thing wasn't easy. These days, I lead my life feeling that something is missing that I somehow need to make my life complete. I know that my feeling about Savannah will never change, and I know I will always wonder about the choice I made.
