See you in another life, brutha.

Lost is finished. Disappointed on so many levels. Now needing to re-watch all 6 seasons. Turns out they were all dead. Not sure when they died....trying to work that out. I believe they may have all died in the plane crash. The island represented a sort of purgatory with Jacob and the man in black locked in a battle for the souls of the losties. Jacob representing good, man in black...evil. I believe our losties, with their sordid pasts and tortured souls, had to reconcile their lives in order to move on. So many things remain unanswered for me in the end. So many things happened in the course of the six year run that are unexplainable and were not addressed in the finale.

In the first season I actually toyed with the dead thing. When I saw Locke walk when he had been in a wheel chair, or learned Rose was terminally ill, but the island healed her, I thought perhaps they were in purgatory. I remember discussing that theory. But then things happened, that in retrospect make no sense and do not contribute at all to the final outcome of things. Why? It is as if the writers had no idea where they were taking us and tried out ideas that they eventually shelved. But I remember those little side bars and have attempted to fit those in the big picture, with no success.

In the end. Perhaps it is like the Robin Williams movie "What Dreams May Come." That movie freaked me out. Maybe death is like that. A series of unexplainable dreams. Maybe things don't mesh because they're not supposed to. Maybe.

I know that I will be working this through for days. Perhaps I will hit on the missing piece of the puzzle that will explain it for me. But I doubt it.

So, in the words of my fav Lost character Desmond Hume, "see you in another life, brutha."
