I've just read another amazing book. The main character is Sam - a schoolgirl - and throughout the story you see her trying to correct her wrong-doings by living the same day again, and again, and again.. Throughout this she deals with a number of important life lessons;

1. Never judge a book by it's cover
2. Have no regrets
3. Live every moment as if it was your last.

I don't want to give away the storyline so I'm all I am going to say is go and read it, it's brilliantly written and leaves you with a number of things to think about afterwards.

'I started to think about time, and how it keeps moving and draining and flowing forever forward, seconds into minutes into days into years, all of it leading to the same place, a current running forever in one direction. And we're all going and swimming as fast as we can, helping it along.. Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there's a tomorrow. Maybe for you there's one thousand tomorrows, or three thousand or ten, so much time you can bathe in it, roll around in it, let it slide like coins through your fingers. So much time you can waste it. But for some of us there's only today. And the truth is you never really know.'

I love that :) It's so true. Life is precious and we should live it as well as we can. We can't all be perfect but there is always room for improvement.

(Apologies if I sound like a self help book!)
