How many of you have this habit of saving the most delicious bite of your food for the last? Or love to eat ice cream cones just to have the taste of chocolate in its bottom? We all do.Reason? We all want to save the 'best' for the 'last' like a showstopper to our best put up show. The 'last' may always depict an end but an 'end' doesn't always depict the 'last'. A bit confusing right?Many of you must be remembering the finale episode of F. R. I. E. N. D. S. titled The Last One'. The last always marks the beginning of a new phase, new challenge.To encounter with the various aspects of life and get acquainted with a new feeling is the foundation upon which our existence is based.

Happily you meet someone and they become an important part of your life but soon you realise that any moment with them can be final. The last is the ultimate and special, thus is cherished till eternity as we wish to make that particular moment worthwhile. True it is, journey to any destination begins with a single step but it ends with a thousands steps walking together holding hands!What does this word depicts?It is the ENDMOST of anything and everything. We don't even realise when one thing can be the 'only' thing and that's when it hit us 'What have we been doing this whole time?.' True it is, the best of you comes out when it is the 'last' of what you do. All the past memories or times related to it just blows like a sudden heavy wind to you and you're thrown away asking yourselves,'Wait! What did just happened?' It brings with it a combo pack of emotions. Yes, 'emotions', a word little scary!Nostalgia, a lil bit of sadness mixed with a pinch of anger, patience for what comes next and a whole lot of happiness to have lived those times emerges out together from your heart! Oh!! A total 'navratan' mixture it seems!

Have we ever considered the fact that as we move forward a step, we leave behind our previous step with our essence behind it only to let people recollect it in wonder later onwards. Same goes on with our temporary moments. As we reach one and let our heart out to live it wholly, we are compelled to take the leap and lean to what's coming ahead. And the whole cycle circles round one thing or say to live one 'last' moment! Ironically confusing right!?

Ever wondered how many 'lasts' have we experienced till now still 'The Last One' awaits us!?

So this article most probably bored you because of its constant poking on the 'last' word. But what if this article you're reading is the 'last' of this writer?

Your journey is full of 'last' destinations but the only time you reach the right 'last' will be when you board the 'last' train!
