雙翼馬的流浪故事

    Nicholas Sparks always writes Love story. Many years ago, I watch a movie—The notebook, I like it. Even put the novel in my book list. I cancel it , just because book list too long. In that moment, I do not know the writer is Nicholas Sparks.

   『Dear John』show up in my book list one year ago. I still do not know who is Nicholas Sparks. Until this year, Mr. Sparks has new book again. The network bookstore does sales promotion, if you buy『Dear John』and『The choice』have discount.

     I read 『Dear John』first, the story does not move me. There are a lot of people do the same thing as John. But『The choice』let me thinking different way.

    『The choice』has two parts. First part, describe Travis how to meet Gabby. Second part, describe Travis has to make big decision. Travis and Gabby’s meet can let us think perhaps really has is doomed. Actually Travis is a third party. Gabby is betraying her boyfriend-Kevin. But in the story I thought that many people can neglect this.

     Travis is handsome and rich. Gabby is so personality. They see real themselves in each other eye. It is so romantic. Gabby should not sex with Travis before break up with Kevin. It is unforgivable. Maybe Gabby already find out impossible with Kevin, in this time, she meet Travis and let it happened in one weekend. Why person is not loyal to love, still can get true love？ Is writer want to tell us？ I believe true love and encourage people to pursue it. But you cannot hold someone and still find another one. Gabby should finish with Kevin’s sentiment and date with Travis. We cannot let the physiological desire defeat the reason.

     Second part talk about Travis and Gabby finally to get out of Kevin. They are happiness and have two daughters. One day, Travis mistake had car accident to cause Gabby unconscious. Gabby has a contract. If she unconscious over 12 weeks and will pull out her Nasgastric tube , let she dying.

     It is time, Travis struggle with Gabby’s wish and his selfishness. He love Gabby so much, he cannot do it. He still let Gabby’s life and transfers to the sanatorium from the hospital. Then he starts to resume to normal life. Miracle is coming, Gabby wake. The time seems to stop during gabby in coma. It is not too tremendous influence to Gabby. Then whole family is happiness again.

     This is a happy ending story. I doubt really has such lucky matter to occur in the world. I always have the same thought with Gabby. If I become disabled or unconscious, please let me die. It is better to me.

     You can say I am cruelly. Sometime I see these vegetables, can regain consciousness the probability approaches in zero. The euthanasia is not legitimately in our country. It makes many families incomplete. It makes conscious people cannot move on. The sanatoruims’s expense is expensive. Not everyone as rich as Travis. If Travis cannot bear all expenses, does he still want to lengthen Gabby’s life? He has two little daughters. He should use money to raise his daughters or lengthen vegetable wife’s life?

     I definitely understand Travis’s small hope, Gabby will wake someday. Lucky is he, the day come. When I read the end, I think two ways. First, if I am that person of wait miracle, what kind of force support me to wait for that I am not sure answer? Travis love Gabby too much, how much love can change the power of wait?

    Second, if I unconscious like Gabby. They according my contract of when I make it in sober. Take away my Nasgastric tube and finish my life, do I really want it? If I have chance to wake, do I kill me by myself? I do not know, when people in coma , can they hear voice or not. It divided into two sects in the medicine. I support the sect of「yes」.

     If really can hear voice, I know that the beloved person appear everyday in beginning. Tell me their feelings but I can do any response. Causes they response to themselves that can be grieved. The human have the inertia. Everyday in beginning then turn to once a week. The times gradually will become few. It is so sad. If the coma’s people know they will wake in someday. Their family want patient dream come true because the contract. Do I not yell in that not response body? Not everyone as lucky as『Just like heaven』’s actress, can find one guy to stop to take away Nasgastric tube.

     Before reading, I very firm to think that turned the vegetable certainly to finish the life, but after read the book, I vacillated. No matter I am a stupor or wait someone wake, let me have different idea. I still think that「the choice」according your「economy」. This is realistic.
