"It only ends once, everything that happens before that is just progress."

I feel like part of my soul just died with the series finale of Lost.
My heart feels broken... like... it's gone... I think that was the only fitting end for LOST, honestly. Haters will hate, but w/e w/e it fit

I'm not quite sure that I'm satisfied with that as an ending but oh well...that said I'm still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing

Hi, creepin' in on this

[bouncing_peace]

Yeah, I got that part about Ben not going in and all. And Juliet with Sawyer. And of course there's Penny...who was never even on the island in the first place, but who got in there b/c of Desmond I guess. At first I thought that everyone at the church had to do with island couples...Charlie & Claire, Jack & Kate, Sawyer & Juliet, Sayid & Shannon, Rose & Bernard, Desmond & Penny, Hurley & Libby, Sun & Jin....but then random single Locke and Boone threw that off

I think Penny was connected to the island though.. in the sense that Desmond was there, she searched for it, she was his constant - his life involved the island AND her, so she was involved in the island therefore as well.

Jacob!Hurley was... to still protect the light. Protect the good, because there would always be evil or someone trying to find the island, like Widmore or Dharma people or someone trying to cause bad. Hurley was the perfect choice because he was a good-hearted person, and like MIB said, Jack was way too obvious XD We don't know for sure what Hurley/Ben did, but it sounds like they did it for a while, and did a good job of it. I think that's left open for us to interpret but in the end, it's not that important - we just have to know that they protected the island, as was needed - the island always needed a protector.

I honestly can't even think of questions I had, as I was too busy trying to understand what we were given so to me, yes, I would like answers but I like being able to think what happened for myself

Michael is stuck on the island, as forever being a whisper in the wind, I feel like. Walt, well, he grew up, lived and I'm he dies too one day, but in the end his life wasn't impacted as much as the others on the island, which is why he wasn't there, I feel like... he left... he was a child and grew up and lived. He wasn't as "lost" as the others.

Ben not joining them shows me he's not ready yet - he's not ready to move on, to admit he died, to give it all up.

I did understand that pulling that "plug" made Smokey mortal, and made the "gift" on Richard wear off, and he could age and eventually die like a human... so even though for a while I thought it was pointless, it did have a purpose, and putting it back in made all right on the island again.

I actually am satisfied. I was confused at first, but once you dissect it a bit, it makes more sense and I feel okay with it. I knew everything wouldn't be answered, I feel like nothing was really answered and I was confused at times but by this point I was just along for the ride

Yeah, I've talked to some people and read some stuff, and things seem to make a little more sense now. Still have questions, but I supposed that's the way it is with LOST. They like to keep us thinking and pondering over all the little things left unanswered. :)
