The Notebook, love or a lie?

Well I’m a girl, so of course I’ve seen the movie, I always wanted to read the book since books are usually better than the movies anyway. I just never got around to it, but this passage made me want to read that book again. Well besides how good I thought it was, it made me think about the future, and wonder if people actually think love is enough. He talks about how he knows he won’t be remembered for long, but its ok because he loved another person and that makes it all ok. I always wonder how people can say something like this, maybe I’m just a negative person, but I just don’t understand how people can be happy based on love. Maybe love makes someone happy, but I don’t understand how a person can feel like their life is complete only on love. The other thing I wondered about was how he was so hopeful about things working out for once with his wife. I don’t understand how someone can stay so hopeful in a situation like that. For me, I see the worst in the future so its kind of bizarre to me how people can have so much hope in that type of situation.
