the feeling

We have these grand ideas and dreams of what things are supposed to be. Or we have these ideals that 'it would be so amazing if'. I am not lecturing on the 'if' because I believe it can be very useful. I just watched the notebook, why is it so amazing? It is because of the feeling they have. It's not necessarily the fact that he climbed a Ferris wheel for a date, it's not necessarily the fact that they spend every second together... it's the feeling.

Let me explain. Especially with romance movies, we think oh how amazing he is, because of the things he does or the things he wears or how he looks. Here's the thing. People say "you have to be careful that you are not living in a fantasy world because that stuff isn't realistic" ... but I say maybe. I believe that we just miss the opportunities to feel it because we are so caught up on how it should be done.
