LOST theory after Ab Aeterno

I was thinking last night about how the dead are transported by boat into the underworld in Egyptian myth. It could be that the plane could be their 'boat' and that maybe an actual plane crash didn't really cause their deaths at all. They could have really all died in their normal lives in normal ways and the plane was their ride into purgatory. The flashbacks could be their actual lives they have always really led. Jacob 'touched' their lives, giving them a chance to 'reboot' and then they could lead better lives so that they would not go to hell in the end. That reboot in their lives became the flash sideways timeline. He gave that moment to choose their destiny. It was their chance to redeem themselves. I think that the island really may be purgatory.

As a side theory to that, what if the candidates aren't dead because they have to be able to go back and forth to the 'real' world? Does it really matter? Jacob seems to defy death. I think the main point is that they have to either redeem their lives or face the ultimate destruction, or death. I think back to what everyone keeps saying about Smoke Lockenessie ... They say that he wants everyone on the Island to die. Isn't that what ultimate evil always wants? So by giving those that come on the Island a choice or a couple of paths to follow, they can decide for themselves which road to choose.

Blog reboot ... one year later

So I haven't blogged on Blogger in a year. It's probably because it's been one crazy, tumultuous year that has involved the death of my parents, a job transition, lots of fun concerts (like Kris Allen & American Idol, Miley Cyrus, Gavin Rossdale and Daughtry) and just lots of other crazy issues.

With the final season of LOST and a rather crappy season of Idol returning, I am re-energized to write. I am going to try to post a few times a week and then add personal stuff about myself and Brianna. I will also post funny videos, my favorite songs, and pictures of fun things we do!!!
