what if?

"'What' and ‘if’ two words as nonthreatening

as words come. But put

...them together side-by-side and they

have the power to haunt you for the

rest of your life: ‘What if?'..."



"I don't know how your story ended.

But I know that if what you felt

then was love - true love - then

it's never too late. If it was true

then, why wouldn't it be true

now? You need only the courage to

follow your heart..."



"I don't know what a love like that

feels like... a love to leave loved

ones for, a love to cross oceans

for... but I'd like to believe that if I

ever felt it, I'd have the courage

to seize it. I hope you had the

courage to seize it, Claire. And if

you didn't, I hope one day that you

will."
