You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you'd experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.

I love the ending of a movie where two people end up together. Preferably if there's rain and an airport or running or a confession of love.
