Hiya there, friends! This is the last outfit post I'll do this year and I want to tackle a special subject: happy endings. Not like the "happy endings" you get at the end of a massage, no, no, I'm referring to the regular ones, haha. Over the course of this year, I've learned a few things about life and I've come to believe that it's okay to not be happy all the time, you're allowed to feel many different things at the same moment and that doesn't necessarily mean that your unhappy or sad. You can always be "sappy" (sad happy).
With that realization, one of my favorite quotes from all time acquired a new and deeper meaning. Orson Welles once said "if you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop your story", I used to think that it only referred to different moments of happiness that are ephemeral but now I feel like it means that there are no happy endings, we just keep on living, having good and bad moments, learning to cope with them, moving forward.
If we want a happy ending, a fairy tale one, then we must stop living at some point. Perhaps that's why people kill themselves at a young age, because they won't be able to surpass their current state of mind, they will not get better than how they are at that particular moment. Of course, I can't grasp that idea completely but I can tell you that the end of 2014 is not a happy one for me, it's much more complex and, for the reasons I stated above, I think that's more than okay.
// ¡Hola, hola, amigos! Éste es el último post de atuendo que haré en este año y quiero abordar un tema especial: finales felices. No como los "finales felices" que consigues al final de un masaje, no, no, me refiero a los normales, jaja. En el transcurso de este año, he aprendido algunas cosas sobre la vida y he llegado a creer que está bien no estar feliz todo el tiempo; se vale sentir muchas cosas a la vez y eso no necesariamente significa que eres infeliz o estás triste.
Con eso en mente, una de mis frases favoritas del universo adquirió un nuevo y más profundo significado. Orson Welles dijo alguna vez "si quieres un final feliz, eso depende, por supuesto, del lugar donde detengas tu historia", solía pensar que eso sólo se refería a diferentes momentos de felicidad que son efímeros pero ahora siento que significa que no hay finales felices, sólo seguimos viviendo, tenido buenos y malos momentos, aprendiendo a lidiar con ellos, siguiendo adelante.
Si queremos un final feliz, uno de cuento, entonces tenemos que dejar de vivir en cierto punto. Quizá es por eso que la gente se suicida cuando es joven, porque no podrán superar su estado mental actual, no podrán mejorar lo que ya tienen en ese particular momento. Por supuesto, no puedo carraspear esa idea por completo pero puedo decirles que el final de 2014 no es uno feliz para mí, es mucho más complejo y, por las razones que cito arriba, creo que eso está más que bien.
Love always, Hen.
