how did you feel after watching the movie? did you feel good and satisfied?
I actually did feel good about it...it gave me a broader understanding of life/choices [i believe]... realistic in my opinion...
simply put, this is what i learned from each character
Ted - People are capable of having more than 1 "True Love"... and Widowed people can and might still find another True Love
Barney - Realization that having a kid is what made him "Loving and Loyal" .. Not an ideal Husband,, but definitely makes a great Father
Lilly/Marshall - The "Marriage Talk" about how their marriage will fall apart if they don't make the decisions together
Robin - Not having Kids can be tough [even if you don't want to in the first place]... so she can only focus on her career.... but eventually finds someone she loves that will love her back despite not being able to start their own family..
