Touching Spirit Bear ends with a scene where Cole and Peter have finally come together despite their past differences and have worked together to carve on Cole's totem to represent his anger:
When Garvey joined the boys, he stared down at the log and at what they had carved. "You carved a perfect circle," he said, a soft smile tugging at his lips. "Why a circle?"
Cole and Peter glanced nervously at each other, neither wanting to speak.
"Could it be because every part of a circle is both a beginning and an end?" Garvey asked. "And everything is one?" (28.72-74)
In the end, both Cole and Peter have moved on and forgiven each other, and both boys have started working on their own lives and becoming better people. They don't need to stay trapped in cycles of rage and unhappiness any longer; they can create bigger, better futures for themselves. It may not be easy, but every moment is another chance for a new beginning.
