Life goes on

Several days previously, a friend of mine told me that he came across a very frustrating thing. When he was watching cartoons with one of his roommates, he asked a question about what would happen later unmindfully. However, his roommate searched on the Internet and told him the answer which came out over 60 episodes later. It made my friend very disappointed and he lost the interest of watching onwards after having known the outcome.

On this matter, I quite agree with my friend. A story is not an exam, and the ending should not be the only thing that matters. Every part of a story plays an important role. Without them, however fascinating ending fades.

However, there are people like my friends’ roommate. What they want to know is: Does Conan(柯南) become bigger in the end? Does the girl in the story find her happiness? Does the guy in the movie have his dream come true? The ending is all they care about, both when watching and living. When they are at the point to make some choices, they always imagine hardly and finally come up with a most likely ending they are going to reach in the future correspondingly. Are there happiness at the end, they want to know.

I don’t know whether they are right or wrong. Maybe it is simply about a life choice, a philosophy that varies from person to person. But if someone were to ask me if my life will ends happily, I would not know how to answer. And I guess I may never find the answer. After all, life is not a movie. As I often say to myself: Life goes on, moving forward ceaselessly like a river, regardless of start, end, past, future, up or down.

I would not know how to answer the question, and I will not bother to. Comparatively, I prefer making choices basing on what I like, what I feel is the right thing to do. I do not what to bother worrying about the future because I believe that nothing will become doomed just for the reason that I make a choice. I do not know whether there will be a happy ending, but I believe there won’t be a regrettable one.
