What does it means to truly love another ?
Hehe. Despite of the the final exams, I managed to finish this novel (actually, this is the second within this week. huhu). Back to the title, Dear John is my first Nicholas Sparks novel and seriously, I was blown away. 
Well, when I first began to read, I never thought that it would amount to such an intriguing book, not only discussing about love story but tying in other things, such as fate as well. And.. this novel shows that.. this is life.. In life, we don't always get the happy ending and we don't always get to be with the one we love. And, at least, Tim is a good guy. He is there, every time Savannah need someone as her companion. That 's enough, I guess..
"I love you, Savannah, and I always will," I breathed. "You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. You were my best friend and my lover, and I dont regret a single moment of it. You made me feel alive again, and most of all, you gave me my father. I'll never forget you for that. You're always going to be the very best part of me. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but I have to leave, and you have to see your husband."
It was so heart breaking when John says they can never see each other again because Savannah is married and it would not be right to even remain friends (Seeee, how gentle man John is!). The way John concluded his thoughts about what real love makes my heart melt. Yes, it is not a happy ending, but truly insightful and touching. Love means that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be.

Hold my hands and take me in the path of Jannah
No one can doubt, feelings to love and be loved.. are real.. natural. He has placed all those eww eww feelings within all of us, humans.. To be ready to bond -Me, also want the same, of course! For a long time, I have been wondering, have to wait for five to six or even maybe ten years after both have been declared into a special kind of relationship.. How hard it is.. Kan ?
Hey, lets follow the flow. For the time being, it is time for us to enjoy the world, to learn.. Yang mana baik, yang mana buruk.. And... If we are meant to be together, of course we 'll be one, one day! Aamin Aamin. :)
By the way, everyone today is busy talking about the role of Muslimah. There are a lot of awareness to educate women regarding their duties (Women have to take care of their appearance, be patient, always sacrifice, bla bla etc). Aren't men is not included in this command ?
