As most movies do, Breakfast at Tiffany's has an end with a significant meaning. In the end, Holly Golightly finds herself up the creek without a paddle, literally standing in the rain at loss for her only friends - cat and Paul Varjak. All because she was stubborn and refused to admit she needs anyone else besides herself. It takes this cliche but captivating moment to make her realise she does after all need her friends. Thus leaving the films last clip as Holly and Paul kissing with cat safely between their intertwined arms.
I feel as though I've lived this moment over in my own life before. I've countless times convinced myself I can go my life by myself with no help and that showing otherwise would be weak, when in the end the people who truly care about me and love me are picking me off the ground. I need to stop being afraid to show any weakness, and let the people who care for me do just that-care for me.
I also feel as though everyone has one of these moments, almost like an epiphany. You go through a moment or even a phase where whatever you've been working to hide shows but in the end it turns out being the opposite of what you intended and you realize you never should have hid it... I don't know if that makes sense to anyone, but something tells me I'm not the only one-- along with Holly too of course. =]
