Where rainbows end

Back once more.
You may or may know this,but I am quite a big fan of Sam Claflin and Lily Collins.Also,you may or may not know this as well,but they are co-starring in this movie called "Love,Rosie",coming out on October 22nd this year.Obviously,I watched the trailer and thought the movie seemed pretty good,so I wanted to check out the book it was based on as well and so this was actually my latest read.
The book is called "Where rainbows end" and it was written b Cecelia Ahern,an Irish writer.I will not lie and truthfully telling you that I was expecting some silly,happy,fluffy contemporary,which the book is clearly not.It is so much darkner,so much more serious,that it just made me really think about chance,destiny and life in general.It is so weird how tiny events can be so crucial to the way our lives turn out eventually.Saying or not saying something that may not seem important at the time,choosing a certain road,getting up at a certain time,asking a certain question,taking a chance,thinking about yourself.
It's these little things you start to think so much about after a certain big thing happens to me.I will not spoil the book for you and give you an example about my own life.After my family and I were in a car crash I started asking myself "what if I didn't do so well in my contest so that we had to get here?","what if my mom picked me up 15 minutes earlier?","what if we didn't stop for food?",what if,what if,what if.It's funny how many what ifs someone can come up with,but I really think it's not heathy to hide under all those questions and forget about the what nows.
Truth is,no matter what,you can't go back in time and change things,life is the way it is and there's not really much to do about it.You can't change the past,so why just destroy your future as well because of it?If you ask me,I think we should just learn to move one more easily instead of making our lives even more miserable than they are.
At the end of the day,all you can do is pick up the pieces and start all over again,right?
It's so strange how some succeed to do that and some don't.Maybe there is a big difference,written in their stars,perhaps.Maybe it's just the way some people are.Maybe it's just everyone's own decision,"Will I gather the power to move on or will I give up?".I suppose one can only take so much,but I also think that you can always pick yourself back up.
'Happy endings always start with hope",right?
Keep picking yourself up,people,and remember that,after all,there's always hope,even if you can't see the bright side at all times.
Until the next song,be safe and keep dreaming.


Love always,
Me.

"All the bright places" by Jennifer Niven ~ Review

Rating:   5/5 Plot: I'm not quite sure what it is that I could share about the plot so that I don't give away too much and ruin the charm of the story and the pleasure of getting to know the characters and their story not knowing much about them beforehand.I think I'm trying to do that a lot nowadays. To put it as plainly as possible,it's honestly as simple as it promises,it's the story of a girl who learns how to live from a boy who wants to die.However simple and complicated at the same time this might sound,it doesn't even start to cover everything,yet perfectly describes it. !warning:  there's a lot of talk about suicide in the book,so if you find that triggering,please do try and avoid getting to it Thoughts on the book: It's hard to even figure out where to start talking about this book,this is how big of an impact it had on me,so I guess I'll just start at the beginning. Once again,I've made the mistake (because this i
