THE NOTEBOOK LIFE LESSONS

THE NOTEBOOK LIFE LESSONS
Few chick flicks stand the test of time. The Notebook, however, is in another league. No matter how many times you read it and cry your eyes out (that final scene will never be okay) it remains an exemplar of true love. The Notebook's release, had valuable lessons that we can fit in our own circumstances.
In the story, there are really a lot of life lessons, but I just wanted to give emphasis on the three major lesson. First is, never give up. Noah never gives up on wooing Allie after falling for her at first sight (he even risks his life hanging from a Ferris Wheel just to score a date!). Noah also never gives up the hope that she'll one day return to him after they break up — he writes her one letter every day for a year and builds her dream house for her. Years later when Allie falls ill and can't even remember her husband, Noah never gives up on trying to make her remember their story by reading his notebook to her every. single. day. Because if we try to give something up, we don’t know it is also the time when someone falls in.
Second is that, be yourself. Even though Noah is not a White collar worker, he never change just for Allie to like him, but he becomes more transparent in showing that even he works 40 cents as hour its not the thing that matters, but what your heart is saying.
And lastly, Seize the Moment. If Noah and Allie's love story taught us anything about how to keep romance alive, it's to always be spontaneous. Case in point: when Noah tells Allie to lie down and watch the street lights change on their first date and then dances with her in the middle of the street or when the two of them take a boat ride and kiss in the rain after their reunion. This couple loves to live by each moment and embrace life — something all couples can learn from!
