But, instead, I can't stop thinking about the show. I can't stop thinking that for most of the people on the island, there really isn't anything for them to return to anyway. I'm not really even sure why they want to be rescued at this point. In some ways, the island is a fantasy much better than real life for most of the characters.
Who knows what this show is about, but it sort of struck me tonight--this contrast between fantasy and reality. Is the fantasy always better? Is the harshness and struggle of reality worth it simply because it's real? Is it better to dream about what might be, but will never actually be or to fight through what is and have hope it can be better?
Yea, I don't know. All I know is Lost leaves me with more questions than any show I've ever watched!
Happy Opening Day! We get to dress casually and get hot dogs for lunch! No complaints here :-)

lost is the best show ever. now that you are almost caught up, welcome to the sad *reality* that you must face when you can't just keep hitting "play" and watching the next episode.
