Putting an End to The End

"Don't adventures ever have an end? I suppose not. Someone else always has to carry on the story." -J.R.R. Tolkien

They say there's a such thing as an end, but I don't believe them. No story ever stops after the last page. The people just don't stop living. They breathe In. Out. In. Out. every second whether it's told or not. They face new struggles and mountains that must be peaked, but the story never ends. Not really. Not if you listen closely and dream. That's when living truly begins. In the Happily Ever After that is anything but happy. It's adventure. Something exciting and thrilling and frightening and disturbing. There's always a new cross to bear. So never believe them when they say 'THE END'.

(Thanks Caroline for the Tolkien quote!)
