Last Christmas Quotes

“You know those times when you are driving down the same street for years, and you think you know it perfectly? Then one day, you’re going along, and something stands out, something that has always been there, but you never really noticed it before. Maybe it’s a building, maybe it's a street sign, just something that you never gave much thought to. But one day, you notice it for real. Some things you don’t see until you really see them, and then that’s all you see. And you wonder how you ever missed something so beautiful, so perfect, when it was right in front of you all this time. When I saw her at that party, that’s what it was like. Like I was seeing her for the first time. I always knew she was pretty, that she was smart and funny. But I never let myself pay attention. I could list off hundreds of reasons for why that happened. But once I really saw her, there was no going back. Then that bet happened. I kissed her to help her out. It was like the dam broke with that one kiss.”
