One of my favorite movies is called A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks. It is a story about true love, commitment, happiness, and sadness. In the story there is a high school girl who is not in the “most popular” group. Some people would say that she was a nerd because she was top in her class. She didn’t have the finest things, but she had everything that she needed and was content. She lived with her father who was a minister. Her mother died while giving birth to her.
At school she signed up to be a tutor. Then one day a guy came up to her and said that he needed some tutoring. She told him that she would tutor him under one condition, that he would not fall in love with her. At the time, he thought that he had no worries about falling in love with her, because they came from two different worlds and were not compatible. This guy had a bad boy image and was in the “popular group”. He also hung out with the “rough crowd”. But little did he know.
They soon became good friends, even though her father wasn’t happy about it. He was also doing well in school. Then it hit him like a ton of bricks, he was in love with her. She kept telling him that he did not love her, but he was not going to give in. In the meantime, she also fell in love with him. Then one day his world came crashing down when they admitted her into the hospital. He learned that she had leukemia. She had been battling this for years, but she did not let him know about it.
At the hospital, they told her that she did not have long to live. They both realized that they both loved each other. When she got well enough, they decided to get married. Two months after they had wed, she died. He went on to go to college to become a doctor. He and her father became good friends over the course of time.
It’s just funny how we judge people, and them turn out to be something totally different. And it can happen I mean, good girl and bad boy can come together to be as one. I highly recommend everyone seeing this movie.
