The Notebook Summary for Eternal Lovers by Nocholas Sparks

So What is The Note Book Summary? and What does eternal love mean? For many, it means living life together and remaining together through thick and thin. It is pictured by two people walking down the beach holding hands early in life then ending life still side by side, hand in hand. This is the basic idea of loving someone for a lifetime, but there are ways to put a spin on it without losing that basic meaning.

For instance, what about the story behind Nicholas Sparks' book, The Notebook? This is a passionate story with a central theme of eternal love, yet the main characters spend the majority of their lives without one another. In fact, one of the characters spends more time physically with one person while her heart is held with someone entirely different miles away. She spends all that time with one person, yet the story is of her eternal love with someone else.

This shows that eternal love is a matter of the heart, not the physical body. A good The Notebook summary will show you how love can be everlasting without ever being consummated. It is consummated in the mind as both people cling to one another through life, even if they are not physically together. This is a different spin on eternal love, but it is a realistic spin that some people actually live out in life.

Life can be cruel and not everyone who falls in love will have the luxury of holding hands on the beach, rocking on the front porch together, or even bickering with one another through old age. Sometimes life takes a spin and lovers end up like the characters in the story of The Notebook.

This novel later turned movie is about a young girl from a wealthy family who falls in love with a boy her parents do not approve for her. He is from a poorer family and her parents decide he is not enough for their daughter. She ends up being forced to move away from the boy and the mother intercepts his letters, ensuring that she will think he has forgotten her and move on with her life.

She does in fact move on with her life. She goes to college, meets a soldier, and accepts his marriage proposal. Yet, fate has a way of twisting a tale and she ends up reading about the boy she loved so many years in the past in the newspaper. She visits him before getting married and they realize how much they have loved one another over the years.

That is the basic The Notebook summary, but it is not the complete tale. There are some twists and unexpected turns that make this story extremely powerful. To reveal anymore would be to spoil the movie, so this The Notebook summary will stop right there.

The grown up girl has to make a decision between the soldier her parents approve of and the grown up man she has been carrying in her heart since she was a young girl. What fate has in store for her is completely unfair, but in the end she is blessed with something many people never experience in a lifetime: eternal love. That is all about The Note Book Summary wrote by  Nicholas Sparks.
