last looks.

"I've recently become a connoisseur of last looks... there's one right now." -Elizabethtown

Here's to finality's. Last looks. Last moments. Last meals. Last songs. Last laughs. Last hand squeezes. Last annoyances. Last impressions. Last goodbyes...for awhile at least.

With finality's come beginnings. Let's celebrate both. When the end is near it is so easy to prepare in advance to spring upon what is next. It's almost as if we're crouched, conserving all our energy, ready for the heads up...and then... the mad plunge into the newness. But while waiting for the jump, don't forget to take a last look and reminisce the previous leap in life. How beautiful.

There's a new leap in life for me. I'm crouched ready for the plunge. But i'm all about last looks. Gratefulness and eternal thankfulness come from last looks.
And with my last looks I'll give you all a knowing grin that says, "I'll be seeing you."
