Perfect Endings

Perfect endings of books are when you are satisfied with how the plot turned out to be.
Perfect endings of movies are when the male and female leads get together in the end.
Perfect endings to chapters in life? Is there really one?
For me, the perfect ending to a meeting is the anticipation of meeting again. It holds hope and happiness (if the person in question is, in fact, a fun-loving kind of person that you would like to meet again, which many people in my life are..)

The perfect end to a relationship? I've always looked at it as well, not an end..just as an extended break, because, well, ending a relationship ain't very pretty. On the other hand, a route change is the less painful, and better ending to certain relationships (e.g: the ex you had is now one of your closest friends)

The perfect end to life? If we're talking about death, its in an unexpected way. It hurts less not knowing when you will die, keeps everyone else from giving you sympathy (unless you like the attention, but then you realise the only reason you're getting the attention is because you're dying, and not because of who you really are, which is really very depressing if you think about it), and when you see your life flash by in those few seconds before death, it will be filled with happy thoughts, rather than 'Damn! I haven't lived life yet! Ok, so the docs said I have this much time right? What can I do to prove that I have lived life?' That just shows how much you regret not doing in your life.

To all of you out there, live life to the fullest. Take in each meeting with anticipation. Keep a relationship going, be it your parents, siblings, friends, BF's or GF's, colleagues, people you meet on the street..

Keep your life simple and pleasant, if you want the perfect ending.

This one's dedicated to the friend I ranted to about my 'perfect ending'.
