Love- A profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
Dear Reader,
The theme of my multi genre is that of love. The book I read was called
Forever…. This book is about a couple’s first account of love with each
other. There names are Kathryn and Michael. Neither has experienced true love before, but when they meet
each other at a New Years Eve party, they just sort of clicked. After the party
they both just simply can not get enough of each other. They become intimate and
you would think they both would want each other forever… But when Kathryn is
forced to go teach tennis at a summer camp over her summer break, she comes in
contact with a boy named Theo. After meeting Theo, they kind of grow very close
together and both find feelings for each other. In these next few posts you will
see the theme of love and the ways it was expressed in this novel. I hope you
enjoy!

Dear God,
Times
have been rough lately and I’m not sure how things will turn out in the
end. It has been about seven weeks since we were last seen
together in person. That has been a long time and I don’t know if
I can take this separation for very much longer. Receiving the
later from Kathryn about her losing her feelings for me felt like I wasn’t alive
anymore. She is my everything. If only I could take
whatever I did wrong back and change it, I think things would be a whole lot
better. Kathryn and I are meant to be and getting this letter
about not loving me the same way has a huge effect on what could happen
next. I just wish you could change the way she is thinking and
make her love me again. Thanks for listening to me vent to you
about my love situation.

Commitment- A pledge or promise
-Advise column
When a boy says they love you... Make sure they mean it by not just telling you... but by showing you. Loves not just a one way act. It takes two , to create a love drawn, faithfully commited relationship. Always where your heart on your sleeve because thats what makes love exciting and fun, but never let someone take advantage of it, and believe there are lots of people that will... lifes a long journey and falling in love is part of life so Love lots, and let people love you!<3 Of course i'm only sixteen and have never experienced love well atleast don't think i have but ive seen it and believe this is the way it should be(:
Relationship- A connection, Association, or involvement.
Reflection-
My theme of course was love.... i chose to do a prayer, ten ways to know if a girl is in love with you list, and advice column, and Diary entries from kathryn as my genres for this project. I chose to do a prayer because i feel like when any and everyone who is christian, when they go through love difficulties that really do hurt your heart i feel like people always turn to god, because well he simply gives those lovebirds hope. I chose to do a Top ten list about knowing if a girl loves you because i feel like when you just see silly things like that it makes you think light of those critical love feeling situations, and in Michaels case i feel like he would have excepted anything because of how strong his feelings were for Kathryn. Also i did an advise column becuse What does every one who is love sick look for? Advise right? Advise just gives you a since of comfort from someone else and that feeling of encouragement which everyone likes. My final Genre was Diary Entrees i chose to do a few Diary entrees summing up my novel from Kathryns point of view. I feel like these entrees helped you understand a little bit of what was going through Kathryns head at every peek of her and Michaels relationship. Doing this Project helped me understand the book more than what i did after i was finished reading it. I had to go back and really understand what was going through both there heads at the end there. Kathryn didnt want to hurt Michael but knew her feelings werent as strong for michael as they were for Theo, and Michael LOVED Kathryn like no other and just was not ready to lose her.
