The Ending is not always Happy...

What pleases us the most is a movie with the happy ending, howsoever, unreal it maybe with respect to the actual life. We prefer an ending with all smiles. We doubt the message, a sad ending could convey. But we go wrong there. The sentiment conveyed by an unhappy ending, could be really lasting. We are used to life with a bed of roses. But what tests your mettle are not "happy moments", but they are those which have led you to the happier times, i.e. the hardships.
You see a movie with a sad ending, feel that it was merely a waste of time. But what about the message it carried, it was probably not to idolize the type of characters of the reel life, in the real life. I believe, we should to learn bit by bit from anything we come across. Life would be too monotonous if all is well all time. Water seems life-giving only when we are thirsty. The pleasure we get after our thirst is quenched, it's indescribable. No doubt, happy endings give us a ray of hope, but we need not ignore the unfavorable results we may come across. Because they will guide us into that zone from which all the troubles emanate, and help us find the epicentre of our sufferings and shortcomings.

  1. hmm...right . I think feeling not satisfied wid a sad ending comes from an inner desire to experience only good of d world . As a person who has seen a lot of sad movies in recent days , i would say that you can enjoy or feel entertained wid sad movies also , what you need to understand is just that this is a part of reality we live in and for me there is nothing more dramatic than reality in its natural form .As it is said , "truth is more of a stranger than fiction " .
    Movies like titanic , requiem for a dream, a clockwork orange and braveheart are some of my all time favs :) . Do watch them !!!

  3. Ya u r right
    but since
    all is well that ends well, an unhappy ending is never an ending.
    If it is a movie, then dialogue from OSO "picture abhi baki hai mere dost"
    and if it is anywhere else, still it is not an ending, something must have been started in your mind, that will end happily only.
