Glee Series Finale

     A couple weeks ago on Friday the Glee series finale aired on TV. I have watched the show since season one, and although I lost in touch with it when the original members left I was eager to watch the series finale, and how the show came to an end. For those of you who have yet to see it I’m just warning you there will be spoilers!
      Since the episode was two hours long it was split into two parts. The first hour of the episode started off in the past, and went more in depth as to why the members decided to join the Glee Club. Warning Spoiler Alert Ahead: Watching the show I began wondering how they would talk about Finn on the show. For those of you who don’t know Finn was played by Cory Monteith who passed away from a drug overdose. He was a member on the episode, but of course was never shown. Until the end of the first hour episode when Mr. Shoe heard the member singing in the auditorium just when he felt like giving up. Of course they were singing Don’t Stop Believing, and showed the original footage from the first episode, and I would be lying if I said I did not cry, because believe me I cried…a lot.
      The second half of the episode took place in the future, and showed you where each member was in their life after high school, and the glee club. It was nice, because it gave the audience closure of what happened, and they wouldn’t be asking so many what ifs. 
 Watching the series finale made me think about why Glee was such a great show, and it was obvious. The Glee club was such a diverse group, and everyone was accepting of everyone’s differences. There was a kid in a wheelchair… I think that’s why it was popular, because everyone in this world just strives to be accepted whether we want to admit it or not. Watching Glee made us not only feel like it was possible, but we felt accepted by the Glee members for our differences even though they have no idea who we are. No matter if were popular or not, rich or poor, skinny, or overweight we just wanted to accept who we are, and Glee helped make that possible. 
 Looking back on the first season I’m glad the Glee was a part of my life, and it has honestly helped me accepted myself for who I am, and I’m forever grateful. Moving forward I wish nothing, but the best for the actors, and actresses.
