Especially with books. I read the last page and then flip to the blank pages after. I wonder what happens now. That's what is so strange. In real life there is never a time that we make one decision, one move, or take one step and it's over. No 'and they lived happily ever after and nothing bothered them again.' We can't make problems disappear and then fade off into the sun and forget about it. Our hearts could never be so automatic. The only end could be death. Couldn't it? Unless you believe there is something that follows... like after life.
But is there ever really a time in real life where someone can say that chapter of life is closed... move on and never think of it again. How can you never think of it again? The future can echo the past. There is no way of knowing if something is truly done and over.
One problem may be solved but there are more to come. That's always true. Tomorrow is not a promise... but a likely dream.
It's not a bad thing. What would life be without drama? Peacefully boring all the same.
Every action as a reaction. There are few ends. That's why it's called the CIRCLE of life. It just flows onward. No pauses or zooming out into the distance. Don't count on the black screen and credits to draw the curtains...
Didn't Adam think when he went to sleep the first night, that he would never wake up again? He discovered the beauty of tomorrow.
Of waking up to a new day that saves our yesterdays and promises our tomorrows... to start over with out erasing the old mistakes...
Make a small mistake and leave it... You can't get up without falling first.
