Authors Note- I chose to write an essay on summer and how one summer can change the way you live forever.
Many
events occur during summer; some hit us without warning while others are just
waiting to happen. These experiences can impact us forever; meanwhile others
only impact us temporary. As for Ronnie her summer was nothing she expected.
Ronnie was your typical teenager,” too cool for this, too cool for that.”
Although on the inside she was much more capable than how she came off. The Last
Song by Nicholas Sparks proves that just one summer can change the way you
live forever.
There
are summer flings and then there are summer romances. Ronnie never experienced a
real love until the summer leading into her adult years. Before Ronnie ever
knew what love was, she was closed in, careless and pretended to be someone she
was not. Many times summer romances hit with surprise and cause excitement
however only last as long as the season. Ally the main character of The
Notebook also witnessed life changing experience that summer romances
created, even though it was only three months it influenced her entire life. No
matter how short or how long experiences last in our life they do affect us
more than we will ever know.
Summer
is filled with romances and unforgettable memories, although many people use
summer as a time to find themselves and re-invent. Unfortunately Ronnie did not expect to change
or have the summer she had unless it weren’t for her dad and Will. Surprisingly
enough the people we surround ourselves with, influence how we choose to live
our lives. Ronnie was surrounded by both positive and negative people; luckily
she learned from the negative surroundings and grew from the positive
surroundings.
Some
of the most important relationships begin in summer and as for Ronnie that was
her relationship with her dad. Starting from no talking to spending every day
she could with him. From what I noticed Ronnie’s outlook on life changed after
realizing the perspective of her fathers, it helped her develop into who she
always was.
Throughout
the season summer, we may find ways to re- invent ourselves, build new
relationships and experience summer love. Some may be obstacles while others
may be a whole new beginning. However it is what happens during those events
that impact and influence us on how we live the rest of our lives.
