“And 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. But most of all, I learned that life is about sitting on benches next ancient creeks with my hand on her knee and sometimes, on good days, for falling in love.”

I've avoided this book for years as I was certain that it would not live up to all that is said about it. However, after reading it in one sitting, my heart feels as though it is about to burst. An homage to love and choosing your person every day.
