Would you like a Hollywood Happy Ending? | Video

I just finished watching "Just Wright."


True to Hollywood form, there was a
happy ending. It cut to the chase,
minimized the pain, and delivered the
fairytale ending right on cue.

I would say everyone likes a neat and
tidy story with glazed over conflict,
but it is not often the case in real
life.

Sometimes in real life the two that
are supposed to get together, don't.

Sometimes (perhaps even often) the
unlikeable people stay unlikeable.

Sometimes things twist and contort and
get messy and never get cleaned up...
no Hollywood Happy Ending for many
relationships.

It's too bad we couldn't script our own
happy endings...I know a few I would have
enjoyed for myself. :)

Even though we can't, though, it doesn't
mean that we can't give it our best shot.
It doesn't mean that we can't pull out
all the stops and say what we really mean
and really feel. It doesn't mean we can't
risk ourselves in the process of opening
ourselves up to another and pursuing
something (or someone) we believe is
important.

We may not wind up with the Hollywood
Happy Ending but remember we haven't
gotten to the end, just yet. This
moment might be one of those dramatic
plot twists that will keep you guessing
for a while.

If things suck, maybe there's room in the
script for a novel or upbeat turn. As
the actor in the story only the moment
reveals itself, and you won't know you
got "there" until the moment itself
arrives.

But you know what?
I'm rooting for ya!

Happy Endings for all...
and for all, a good night!
