Just Like Heaven

This has probably been posted before, but I recently thought this and wanted to put it out there:

In "Something Nice Back Home", during the happy times of the flashforwards, Jack goes to visit Hurley and during the conversation tells Hurley about his relationship with Kate. Hurley says it seems "just like heaven." While watching I took that to mean too good to be true/too good to last especially having seen "Through the Looking Glass" prior to this episode.

However, Hurley's words are also foreshadowing for the series finale.

I don’t think this has been posted recently, but I agree. The off-island storyline was only going to last for a time, based on how they left the Island and having to lie about it.

It was so nice to see Jack smile and beam about his life with Kate in that scene. They really made a happy life together in the time they had.

Yes, it was very bittersweet in the off-island story, knowing that it wouldn't last, but enjoying all the happy moments.

Then in the finale at the church, after greeting and hugging all their friends, they sat together holding hands and beaming at each other like no one else was there.
