              True Love do exists and some of  us do experience it as our heart beats so fast that you can't utter a single word. As we feel the love around and think of something lovely and say, "...do you think , that our love can create miracles? ...yes I do, that's what brings you back to me each time ..." is one of the  loveliest quote conversation between the two lover's  Noah Calhoun and Allie Nelson in the story.  
 
             The story of Nicholas Sparks reflects the two lovers who fell in love with each other through the years. The narrator of the story and the main character is Noah Calhoun. Noah good and kind man who fell in love with Allie fourteen years ago before the story opens. Allison Nelson, a young woman who comes from the rich family and spends wonderful summer with Noah. The two young fellows meet one evening at a carnival where Noah was love at first sight to Allie. And that’s the start of Allie’s wonderful summer with Noah. But Allie’s parents don’t think that Noah is good enough for their daughter and decided to separate the two by forcing Allie to move and go to college although she’s willing to give up everything for Noah.  Though they were separated due to Allie’s parents, Noah writes to Allie everyday and waited for her responds. But suddenly she never gets Noah’s letters for Allie’s mother hide it for not to Allie write back to him. Until Allie meet and falls in love with the handsome and wealthy soldier Lon Hamilton. They were engaged when Allie saw the picture of Noah standing in front of a fully restored 200 year old home with filled of praises for his accomplishments in the article. When Allie saw Noah’s picture in the article, she goes back and see if his okay and tell him about her marriage. The last time she saw this house, it was rotted decaying shamble in which they shared their last loving memories with each other. They spent a few days together and feel their echoes in their hearts, the one that has lasted all these years is not shared by the other. And Allie needs to choose between her Fiancé and Noah. As she choose Noah, though her fiancé trying to win her back but in the end it’s too late. As she leaves, Anne Nelson (mother of Allie), she finally gives the letters to Allie and whispered to her that she should follow her heart. Years past, with the age of eighty, Noah had a stroke while Allie suffered Alzheimer’s disease. Noah reads Allie’s final letter again to help her remember things and to overcome the disease to be with him in the end. At that cause, she goes to the room of Allie to leave a poem under her pillow, but instead he kisses her passionately and she was awaken and recognize Noah, glad that he has come back to her and they both happy with a passionate love with each other. There passion will continue and they both rest themselves and die together ones more just as Allie had promised.
I was amazed and day dream of something while reading this story. It shows how powerful love is and how they both sacrifice and suffered things when they got separated because of Allie’s parents. Though years had passed to both of them, they still love each other and can’t deny to the fact that they are still hoping for a happy ending. I can’t imagine things like this. In the last chapter, I then realize that when you found your true love you’ll be the happiest person in the whole world. And that person will give you the best of your life everyday that you’ll treasure like a diamond that you’ll keep and hold on forever.
