You know, I sometimes wonder if people wonder what happens after happy endings. Like, you’ve read the whole story, it began with some troublesome society or some part, and then it moved on towards a climax, you perhaps lose some of your favorite characters, or just make the bonds with some new ones, and the story ended, the movie ended. And everything happened good at the end. But then what? Like, what happens after the end? It’s not like their lives end right at the time when the story ends, so their lives keep going. It’s not like their lives have stopped. So, if those characters are still living, somewhere, then what is happening to them? What is this ending thing? And do things really have to end? What does endings mean to us, and how do they affect us? Do we also end in those endings and with those endings, or are endings really some kind of beginning? Some kind of beginning for something. Maybe for something new, maybe for something ordinary, maybe for something old, just to continue. Just to be there. Just to not end.

In Frederick Backman‘s Britt Marie Was Here, Britt Marie reaches a town named Borg, a place in the world which just exists, some of those places which exist but we never got to know about them when we are living. It is a part of this world which is not a part of our world. So when Britt Marie reaches there, she finds this new world, which was completely hidden from her eyes. And maybe the first thing that comes into mind when we see places like this which we think would not exist in our world, which would simply not work because they don’t have the system which we consider the correct one for a world to be executed, for a world to exist, for society to succeed, but that’s the thing maybe. Even though they aren’t succeeding, they are just existing, they are just there. and that hidden place just gives life to Britt Marie, It tells for the first time in her life, that maybe we can actually live. And some of us perhaps have to live there, for such societies and such worlds to exist. In some corners where the eyes could not see, where the headlines could not reach, where the imagination couldn’t imagine, but they just exist. And there are just people there who amaze us into thinking how in the world would be if it never existed. I think perhaps some of us just live there and their lives make the world around us, the world around them, live. It gives life to that world, to that dimension, and perhaps to the hearts and the souls and the trees and the buildings and the pools and the bowls and the papers and the roads. I think it might just give life to everything. And again, I think some things just need to exist, because they have life, because they can give life, and because they have life in the most beautiful forms. And also because maybe they can give life to some others as well. Some may live through them, maybe who read them, maybe who see them, maybe who can even feel them, or perhaps even to those as well who don’t even know about them.

So yeah, I think things should exist. Things as well as ideas, as well as thoughts, as well as feelings. So all of these should exist. In fact, an amalgamation of all these could also exist. Things with some feelings, forming some ideas, having some thoughts, that can also exist, couldn’t it?
Nowadays, I think the most viewed, most liked, and favorite medium for people is basically something stored inside a camera, maybe in the form of a video, and then it could just transform into any other form, maybe in the movie, in the videos, long-form videos, short films, or even shorts as well. I’m not saying I’m against the-camera-capturing videos. I do like them a lot, but one more thing that I do like is basically blogging. You can say writing. I don’t think blogging is as much of a passion as it was when I was born, or maybe even before that. It was in fashion when I didn’t know about it, and I guess I was just too young to know about it. And now when it is my source of therapy, the world has moved ahead now, towards the next step. So, I do think that my brain power for writing has woken up at wrong time because I don’t see any much blogging around me. Not as such as that would fascinate me, or even if I do see, it’s not in that much quantity, and it barely has the quality. So, there are very, very few left behind. And maybe one thing that I can call in my life as my specialty is to just stay behind when everyone is going ahead. Perhaps just to stay back, perhaps just to, you know, be a part of something that I want and I think that should live. So, I just stay there. Try to. At least I do try. And so, I guess I will try.
Perhaps it is not as much as a usual thing in a person’s life as much as it used to be at some point and I know you could also call it old-fashioned or whatever you’d like to say it. You can give it whatever name you want but I think there do still exist some people who would do this, who would like to do it and maybe just as I said I just like to stay behind and take the opposite route of what mostly people are going for. So maybe that’s the reason but I know that it is as it is.
I just want it to live. I just want something to live. Maybe not everything because I sure would like to see one thing fall, and that is the leaning tower of Pisa. Yes, I am waiting for the leaning tower of Pisa to fall and seriously when it would be falling I want to be standing alongside it with popcorns, and some movie glasses as well, and watch it falling. That would be a hell a lot of a good scene for me and a moment for me to remember because that thing has been leaning for so long now and I would just like to see what would the other state of it be. I would like to see what would be the other state of this blog, when its not quite silent; quite dead, and rather quite alive.
So yeah, like there are things that could just choose the option to not live but maybe this is something that I would like for it to live and it would look good and perhaps it is one of those things which will continue to exist. To some it might sound like it’s a miracle for the conditions it went through. To some it might look like a really rigorous thing. To some it just feels like it’s the most special thing and to some it just might not even matter. But I think that it should just live. It should have the essence and it should continue to shine because I know it has all the potential and power and light to bring out some of the most positive effects and I would like for it to shine. I would like for it to continue and I would like for it to live.
When I saw it for the first time, the Big Bang Blogs, it was about to end. I don’t know if I could name that a happy ending or not. I just know that there was an ending attached to it and that was the only thing that bothered me because I truly believe that things like these which have all the potential to shine, which has all the power and which can do so much positive, which are just so beautiful. They should not end even if they are happy endings. I’m hoping it will continue to exist and I’m hoping it will be a beautiful journey. I’m hoping I’ll be able to put my fair share of heart and soul in it. I’ll be happy to just move on with it. I think I already have delayed it a lot more than I thought because that’s one more thing with me. I just think too much for anything to exist or happen and I did think a lot about it. And after all these thoughts I just came to one conclusion that I need to shut down my thinking powers and just do it. Maybe if I am coming back to it even after trying to stay away from it, then perhaps the right thing is just to do it and that is the reason why I am here writing it and continuing it.
I would like for it to live.
So, Big Bang blog is Live.
Long live blogging.
So live.
