the end... always said to mark the completion of a fairy tale, be it happy or not. it's an interesting phrase and completely closes up a story. it leaves questions, but answers them at the same time. it tells you that these characters' lives do not move on from the end of the story, nothing exciting happens to them ever again.

its coming to the end of the semester here and a lot of people are moving on. moving on to do new and exciting things with their lives. people i have come to love and care about will be leaving and i will probably never see some of these people ever again. it saddens me. we're at the end of our physical relationships (being able to spend time with each other in person), but with technology we can remain in contact, but relationships like that only last for so long until they are dead. all things come to an end, but they still continue.

it is the end of an era, but not the end of those involved. they will carry on. it is not the end.
