As Macy begins to become more comfortable around others, she start to wonder if it really is betterto be safe than sorry.

"There is never a time for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a flashing, throbbing moment." "I'd long ago learned not to be too picky about farewells. They weren't gauranteed or promised. You were lucky, more thn blessed, if you got a goodbye at all." "It's just that... I just think that some things are meant to be broken. Imperfect. Chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is."

**CHARACTERS IN MOVIE:** Macy Queen: I picked Carly Schroeder first, because she has blonde hair. Also because i know of her from the movie //Gracie.// In this movie, she is very athletic and fit and in __The Truth About Forever__ Macy is a really good runner. They are also both skinny and have round faces. Mostly i picked Carly Schroeder because this is pretty much how i pictured Macy the whole time i was reading the book. **Wes:** I picked Chad Michael Murry because, to many girls, he is attractive and, in __The Truth About Forever__ __,__ so is Wes. Also because he can be a very honest actor, and Wes likes telling the truth and is calm and Chad Michael Murry reminds me of that. Mostly because he is who i pictured who i was reading the story because the description of how Wes acted reminded me of Chad in //A Cinderella Story//.

**REVALENCE OF BOOK:** The main way this book reates to the World is that many people in the world sufer with loss and that's what Macy and Wes and all the other people in the book went through. Everyone in The Truth About Forever lost something in their life and had to learn how to let go of their past, open up, and trust themself, and others. This relates to the world very well because i gaurantee almost everyone in the world has lost something in their life and had to let go, open up, and learn to trust themselves and others.
