Every movie starts of with a happy cheerful scene where people are happy, doing their things with the people that they love. Everything is great. Everyone is happy. It's always about the happy beginnings.
Then comes the conflict. People drift apart, things change for the worse obviously, people do things that they usually don't and there comes in the sad songs. Songs that make you cry, miss people or just feel for the characters. Haven't you ever wished that you could do something to help the characters? Make their pain go away? Do something that could drill some sense into the characters? The conflict is the crux of the story. Based on how the characters overcome the conflict is what the story is about. It's never about the happy beginnings or the great endings. It's about how the characters finally find a way to still find their way back. Is it the writer's way of saying, with time everything will fall back into place and everyone go back to exactly where they belong?
Is our life also like a story that someone has been writing for us? God, The Universe, or just a Higher Power? Do you think that all the conflicts that we face in our lives is just a result of them trying to write a Big Best Seller? Do you think all the conflicts will solve eventually as your story unfolds? Do you think there is a period to everything? The happy times and the bad times?
When you look back into your life ten years from now, when you deeply reflect on your life, do you think your life is a Best Seller?
