Grey's Anatomy life lessons
Herregud vad mycket text tänker ni nu. Och jo, det är mycket text. Och jo, jag vet att de flesta av er knappast kommer att orka läsa igenom allting. Vissa kanske inte ens läser så här långt. Men jag ville ändå dela med mej av dessa visdomar från världens bästa TV-serie. Ni som orkar läsa - det är värt minuterna det tar.
- We do our very best but sometimes it’s just not good enough. We buckle our seat belts, we wear a helmet, we stick to the lighted paths. We try to be safe. We try so hard to protect ourselves but it doesn’t make a damn bit of difference cause when the bad things come, they come out of nowhere. The bad things come suddenly with no warning but we forget, that sometimes that’s how the good things come too.
- There is a magic in knowing that while not everything can be repaired, most everything can be survived.
- There’s an end to every storm. Once all the trees have been uprooted. Once all the houses have been ripped apart. The wind will hush. The clouds will part. The rain will stop. The sky will clear in an instant and only then, in those quiet moments after the storm, do we learn who was strong enough to survive it.
- Maybe we like the pain. Maybe we’re wired that way cause without it, I don’t know, maybe we just wouldn’t feel real. What’s that saying, why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when i stop.
- Responsibility, it really does suck. Unfortunately once you get past the age of braces and training bras, responsibility doesn’t go away. It can’t be avoided. Either someone makes us face it or we suffer the consequences. And still adulthood has it’s purpose. I mean the shoes, the sex, the no parents anywhere telling you what to do, that’s pretty damn good.
- It’s one of those things people say. You can’t move on until you’ve let go of the past. Letting go is the easy part. It’s the moving on that’s painful. So sometimes we fight it. Try and keep things the same. Things can’t stay the same though. At some point, you just have to let go. Move on, it’s the only way we grow.
- What’s worse? New wounds which are so horribly painful or old wounds that should have healed years ago and never did? Maybe our old wounds teach us something. They remind us where we’ve been and what we’ve over come. They teach us lessons about what to avoid in the future. That’s what we like to think but that’s not the way it is, is it? Some things we just have to learn over and over and over again.
- At the end of the day when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to someone. So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it’s usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to and once we’ve chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. And sure sometimes close can be too close, but sometimes that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.
- An hour. One hour can change everything, forever. An hour can save your life. An hour can change your life. Sometimes an hour is just a gift we give ourselves. For some, an hour can mean almost nothing. For others, an hour means all the difference in the world but in the end, it’s still just an hour. One of many, many more to come. Sixty minutes, thirty six hundred seconds, that’s it and it starts all over agian and who knows what the next hour might hold.
- We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning the future, trying to predict the future. As if figuring it out will somehow cushion the blow but the future is always changing. The future is the whole of our deepest fears and our wildest hopes but one thing is certain. When it finally reveals itself, the future is never the way we imagined it.
