Love. It's what keeps me turning pages. If I could just focus on the love I want to share in my writing, I might be able to get my characters' story written. Here's a writer who knew how to really, really write about love.
“So in the middle of all the noise, I point to the sky. I hope he understands what I mean, because I mean so many things: My heart will always fly his name. I won't go gentle. I'll find a way to soar like the angels in the stories and I will find him. And I know he understands as he looks straight at me, deep into my eyes. His lips move silently, and I know what he says: the words of a poem that only two people in the world know. Tears well up but I blink them away. Because if there is one moment in my life that I want to see clearly, this is it.”
― Ally Condie, Matched
Here's hoping for melted snow, warm sun, happy birds and lots and lots of puddles to splash in.
Loved Matched. What a great quote.
ReplyDeleteMatched... great book. And I am with you, I have had enough of the snow!
ReplyDeleteYes! That was a great book, although the plot for the other two didn't quite live up to the first.
ReplyDeleteSo I don't know what everone's talking about. Snow? What is this mythical thing you speak of?
