beautiful nice moving
You've always lived here, right?" Sarah asked. "Except for the years I went to college." "Didn't you ever want to move away? To experience something new?" "Like bistros?" She nudged him playfully with her elbow. "No, not just that. Cities have a vibrancy, a sense of excitement that you can't find in a small town." "I don't doubt it. But to be honest, I've never been interested in things like that. I don't need those things to make me happy. A nice quiet place to unwind at the end of the day, beautiful views, a few good friends. What else is there?
struggle moving writing
As I write, I am struggling with the ghost of someone I loved and lost. I now understand more fully the difficulties you were going through, and I realize how painful it must have been for you to move on.
moving love-you care
It'll be hard, but life moves fast-we'll see each other again. I know that. I can feel that. Just like I can feel how much you care for me and how much I love you
moving eye intelligent
But even though she was attractive, there was something else about her that caught his eye. She was intelligent, he could sense that right away, and confident, too, as if she were able to move through life on her own terms. To him, these were the things that really mattered. Without them, beauty was nothing.
mistake moving perfect
We are not perfect. We make mistakes. We screw up but then we forgive and move forward.
moving-on guarantees notebook-love
It's the possibility that keeps me going, not the guarantee.
moving acceptance people
Because in the end, and no matter how hard it is, acceptance helps people move on with the rest of their lives.
moving-on growing-up memories
It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on.
collapse ending good knew knowing novels poignant previous rest since time waste
I knew I wanted the ending of the story to be poignant and heart-felt, and secondly, because I didn't know if I would be able to do that, since my previous novels hadn't been good enough to publish. If I couldn't do it, I didn't want to waste my time writing the rest of the novel, knowing it would collapse at the end.
adapted best familiar knowing people
The best part of having a movie adapted is knowing that more people will become familiar with my work.
beauty cannot collection dreaming finding flowers learned life lived obvious poetry refreshing simply spent talking
I learned what is obvious to a child. That life is simply a collection of little lives, each lived one day at a time. That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers and poetry and talking to animals. That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes cannot be bettered.
based decision historical preference
I have no preference on writing in contemporary or historical periods-that decision is based on the story.
desire
I have no desire to write screenplays-at heart, I'm a novelist.
dream expect hope
You hope for the success, you dream about it, but you never expect it.
