9 years after The Notebook
was released, I finally got to see what everyone was rambling (ok drooling !!!)about. I loooooove Ryan Gosling so how I took so long to watch this movie is absolute SACRILEDGE! Noah’s love for Ally immediately reminded me
of my own grandparents.
Ma Maisie contracted Alzheimer’s towards the
end of her life. This took her back to the beginning of her 60year marriage to my Grandfather. What transpired during those last few years wasn't always pleasant. It wasn't fun watching my grandmother deteriorate to a child-like state, watching her re-live PAINFUL pieces of her past that some of us had not being aware of.
During some of her outbursts, I watched how she hurled her anger and sadness at my grandfather. I saw his sadness, I also saw the love & patience in his eyes. My grandfather followed
her to the other side 8 months after she passed.
As I think back and reflect, I realized that sometimes we have to look back in order to make sense of the present.

I look to my right and there he is, my Noah.
My someone. The one I know will
love me and hold my hand into the future.
My eyes mist over.
I cover him in kisses.
I giggle like a school-girl.
I am Grateful.
I am LOVED
