I am LOST

While I love the ABC series LOST which begins its 5th season tonight, I am completely confused by why things are happening. If you watch the show, and I would highly recommend that you do, it's not only whats happening that can cause confusion but why. Last season ended with 6 survivors pretending they are the only 6 alive from the plane crash, keeping the secret of the island and The Others. And in a twist I could not have imagined ( even in the bizarre world of LOST), the island and all of its inhabitants completely disappear. Sucked into a vortex of space and time? To try and figure this out I have trolled the Internet for theories, and there are many of them, regarding what's going on. While reading some of these theories Ive come to the conclusion that I need a degree in divinity and ancient civilizations to even begin to understand whats going on here. Maybe I should just throw my hands up in the air and give up. But I cant! For reasons I cant really understand, I love LOST. To me it's even more intriguing exactly because I cant figure out the what's and why's and meaning behind every characters action. And the idea that the island may be heaven, or it may be a another character ( another person if you will) fascinates me. I may not understand a damn thing that's going on, but I love being lost.
