A Last Sight

Like with every first thing, last things also last, and last longer. If the first breath has a significance, so has the last breath. Have you seen something as it was your last sight of them? It evokes as many sentiments as does the first sight, or even more. If you remember a first meeting, you’d be remembering last one as well. Last match of a tournament indulges as many spectators as does the first match.

One amazing fact about last things is that you never know if that was the last one. You’re never certain of something happening for the last time. Perhaps that is why we believe in things like “first impression is last impression”? Which definitely is true with people whom we don’t expect to meet again. But for the people whom we meet time and again, first impression theory is put in serious doubts as our thoughts and impressions change frequently. What’s important to us is, how someone behaved first time, and how they behaved last time. We draw character of people, not solely but to great extent, based on answers to these two questions.

So the last things are as significant parts of memories as are the first things. Whatever they hold, be it joy or pain, they hold loads of it. And when we know its first and last, its memorable and lasting first thing that we carry and cherish all our life.
