SYSNOPSIS:
Feeling that it’s time for a change in her life, Dr. Kate Forster (SANDRA BULLOCK) leaves the suburban Illinois locale where she completed her residency and takes a job at a busy Chicago hospital. One thing she is reluctant to leave behind is the uniquely beautiful house she’s been renting - a spacious and artfully designed refuge with large windows that overlook a placid lake. It’s a place in which she felt her true self.
It is a winter morning in 2006.
On her way to the city, Kate leaves a note in the mailbox for house’s next tenant, asking him to forward her mail and noting that the inexplicable painted paw prints he might notice by the front door were there when she moved in.
But when the next tenant arrives, he sees a much different picture. Alex Wyler (KEANU REEVES), a talented but frustrated architect working at a nearby construction site, finds the lake house badly neglected: dusty, dirty and overgrown with weeds. And no sign of paw prints anywhere.
The house has special meaning for Alex. In a happier time it was built by his estranged father (CHRISTOPHER PLUMMER), a renowned architect who allowed his professional acclaim to grow at the expense of his family life. Alex feels a sense of peace here now and commits to restoring the property to its original beauty. He disregards Kate’s note until, days later, while painting the weather-beaten jetty he sees a stray dog run across the fresh paint and then towards the entrance of the house, leaving paw prints exactly where she said they’d be.
Baffled, Alex writes back, saying that the house had no occupant before him and wondering how she could have known about the dog; while Kate, who just left it a week ago, imagines he is playing some kind of joke on her and fires back a reply.
Just for argument’s sake, what day is it there?
April 14, 2004.
No, she says. It’s April 14, 2006.
The same day, two years apart.
Can this be happening?
As Kate and Alex continue to correspond through the lake house’s mailbox they confirm that they are, incredibly, impossibly, living two years apart, and each at a time in their lives when they are struggling with past disappointments and trying to make a new start. Sharing this unusual bond, they reveal more of themselves to one another with each passing week - their secrets, their doubts and dreams, until they find themselves falling in love.
Determined to bridge the distance between them at last and unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary connection, they tempt fate by arranging to meet. But, by trying to join their two separate worlds, they could risk losing each other forever.

Happiness..
.. is somewhere between too little and too much.
may you have just enough wealth to meet your needs..
.. enough poverty to learn how to work hard..
.. enough blessing to know that GOd loves you..
.. enough problems so u dont forget him..
.. enough happiness to keep you sweet..
.. enough trialsto keep you strong..
.. enough hope to keep you happy..
.. enough sorrow to keep you human..
.. what you become is your gift to God.
when do u let go?
there is nothing wrong in loving someone.
you may be able to bear the pain when love beins to to hurt..
and when it hurts..
you may still be able to give even more.
you may be even able to love til it hurts no more.
but what good does it bring you when the person you love shows no respect for what you feel..
and makes lame excuses for his inability to love you back?
love isnt love till you give it away.
but love will only have life when it is shared by 2 people who believe in its meaning..
what is a lover?
you are a lover when you remember that your partner does not belong to you..
he or she is on love from the universe.
you are a lover when you realize that nothing that pennes between you will be insignificant..
that everything you sayin the relationship has the potential to cause your beloved joy or sorrow..
and everything you do will either strengthen or weaken it.
