Do You Believe In Happy Endings?

"Do you believe in happy endings?"
I sent this text to 13 people.

4 people thought I was going suicidal.
2 people asked if I was hurting myself.
1 person said no.
4 people said yes.
2 people said maybe.
 1 person didn't understand my question.

Do you believe in happy endings?
I do. I don't. 
I can fight for both sides.

I don't.
What has given me reason to believe in happy endings?
In relationships, people get hurt.
In life, people get hurt.
I've seen enough. 
I've seen enough to know that not everything ends up OK.
I've seen people die of cancer...
It hurt.
I still cry over it.

Do you believe in happy endings?
No.

How can you call divorce a happy ending?
How can you call the boy who meant everything to you;  walking out of your life;
A happy ending?
How can you call losing your baby girl as a still birth a happy ending?
I can't..
Don't ask me to.

Do you believe in happy endings?
Yes.

I believe in God. 
So nothing really ends..

Rainbows have happy endings; laced with gold.

Anything can end happy,
Like someone who comes in last place in a race, can still be the one with the biggest smile on their face.
Poetic.

I believe in happy endings.

Like how in books,
The boy always gets the girl.
Cinderella ends up with her prince,
And no one cries.

No one hurts..

I wish my life was like a story book.

You may have to go threw hell,
But yes; you will find your happy ending.

Do you believe in happy endings?

  1. Happy endings- so to speak- shouldn't be generalized.
    There are a lot of things people should, or should not do. Between "right" and it's opposite "wrong", is where we, as humans spend a lifetime deciphering. What is really right? There is wrong, in possibly everything you do. Someone will look down on you for anything they can think of. But when did that ever stop us from making decisions?
    - Off topic
    Happy endings are characterized by the beholder of the exposition, and it's resolution. One makes the right happy ending the way they believe it. You can only have a happy ending if you desire it- not lust, but need.
    Opinions are more of the matter than anyway you see it.
