If Only

September 6, 2005

“He loved her like there was no tomorrow..”

This is the movie I was talking about. Called “If Only”, starring Jennifer Hewitt and Paul Nichols, I really thought it was a typical romantic-drama film of regret and second chance. I chose it over “The Crash”, which I was supposed to watch that time, because I wanted to feel the teasing “kilig” we call here - a funny little emotion one feels when he or she is in love.

Well, who would have thought the movie wasn’t really like that?

The movie hasn’t reached its half when Samantha (Hewitt) faced death by a car accident. The scene was so poignant, I was feeling crushed myself. Why crushed? Well, the accident actually occured just in front of the Ian (Nichols). How would you react if you were at his place? How would you take an event when the life of your loved one was taken away just in front of you?

Well, there was a sort of rewind in the story — yes, yesterday came back. He tried to cahnge the course of things, but knowing in the later part of the day that he could never change what is about to happen (the death of his girlfriend) no matter how much he tries to change it, or no matter how much he tries to let her escape from it, he just made the day beautiful for her, made the most out of it and showed how much she means the world to her. At 5 minutes preceding the death, he told her every single thing he wanted to tell her. He said that it was she who taught him how to love, how to live life well, and that he knows he will never be this way if not for her.

At the car he kissed her the most passionate, the most loving kiss he could ever give her. He hugged her tight. Samantha was starting to get confused, more so when he was starting to get nervous and disturbed. When he knew it was time, he hugged her and tried to shield her from the car that bumped them.

So who was dead? No, not both of them. Not Samantha. It was Ian (Nicholls).

Well indeed, “he loved her like there was no tomorrow,” because today was his time to say goodbye.

I loved the movie. It made me think how time and choice correlate each other; how our choices affect what will be the “later” in our lives; how much little time we have here on earth and how we should make the most out of it; how futile it is to love someone so much, yet cannot show it; how to know that you love someone is not just enough — you have to “love” that someone.

But for me, the best and the most touching message was,

“I love you. You love me. Take this gift, and don’t ask why.”

It means that when you know you love each other, just love each other. Do not confuse yourselves with the why’s of it. It is something naturally felt, a gift that seems so reachable by the hand, seemingly common to humanity, but not really, genuinely felt by many. To love and be loved is the best best present not only in the world of emotion, but the world itself.

New Era Caps latest marketing endeavours have been positioned towards enabling YOU to be YOU by introducing the fly your own flag campaign ED Hardy Caps, and they weren’t joking. Here is the official legit scoop on what’s to be expected with the 59 fifty Caps BY YOU initiative! You can expect to place your first custom order approximately mid-November.The process from point of order will take approximately 45 days because of how new it is, however in reality should take less time. When you customize your piece you will be able to utilize MLB Cap, Cooperstown and New Era logos as well as more than 60 fabric color choices and thread choices which enables a whole new world of possibilities with literally millions of color combination’s D&G Caps!!In many years, that vision has come through. But — Yankees and Red Sox fans, don’t hate me — I grow weary of the same teams returning to the playoffs DC Caps year after year after year. The seemingly endless run of playoff appearances by the Atlanta Braves is a good example. They hoarded playoff appearances, although I must admit my judgment carries the bitter tinge from their only Series victory in recent memory, in 1995 over the Cleveland Indians.Then there was the ’97 series, in which the NL wild card team – the Florida Marlins – defeated the Tribe in the series. Where’s the justice in that?

It comes at the very end of Paris Fashion Week, which is the last city of the season, and its arrival taunts LV Monogram Handbags lovers for a full month. Unlike some designers whose brands make a great deal of money from accessories but you largely eschew the use of bags on the runway.And befitting off all the anticipation, the Louis Vuitton EPI Leather from Louis Vuitton Spring 2011 are particularly lovely.In my experience, most people other adore Coach Poppy Collection or they hate them, there’s not much of an in-between. And that’s true of most lines that really go for it when it comes to having a point of view – the more personality a Coach Shoulder Bags has, the wider the gulf between the lovers and the haters becomes.
