I have been watching Grey’s Anatomy the whole day. It’s a Saturday. I, Maria Fleurdeliz “Nana” Rubio, was at home the whole day of a Saturday watching the damn series. I, who would never go home early on weekdays, who’s always has plans on a Friday and who NEVER stays home on a weekend (not unless sick). I got hooked. I have neck and back cramps from lying down our living room sofa and my eyes are so strained from staring at our TV for more than 12 hours straight.
I wanted to stop. I really did. I was already palpitating which always happens when I stay home for a long period of time. But for some reasons I can’t. I was crying from one episode to another. I guess dito na papasok yung, misery loves company. Albeit puffy eyes, I continued because the things I learned from this series were somehow worth it and I wanna share it in this blog.
*As far as suffering is concerned, those who suffer the most are those who do not know what they want
*By the end of the day, what we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance and not care about each other, that’s just a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to and once we have chosen those people, we tend to be close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people who are still with you at the end of the day are those people worth keeping.
*Not everyone knows that the human eye has a blind spot. There is a part of the world that we are literally blind to. We just don’t know that this blind spot make us not see the things that we literally need not see. This blind spot usually makes us happy. Maybe it is just protecting us.
*It’s okay not to be fine sometimes. Some wounds run deeper than how we see them. They look worse than one you see by the naked eye and there are some that takes us by surprise. The trick with the wound is to dig down and find the source of the injury and when you find it, try like hell to heal the sucker.
*Most of the time, you need to go step by step. Most of the time we can’t tell what’s wrong with a person by just looking at them. They can look perfectly fine on the outside while inside, they are telling a different story.
*Sometimes, pain is there for a reason.
*We can try to let go of what was.
*Time waits for no one. All any of us wants is more time. Time to stand up, grow up or time to let go.
*Maybe we like the pain. Maybe because without it, we wouldn’t feel real. Why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when it stops.
*The world is full of unexpected twist and turns. When you thought everything’s okay, the ground below you shifts and knocks you off your feet. If you’re lucky, you’d end up with a flesh wound. Something a band-aid can heal. But some wounds are deeper than they appear and require more than a quick fix. With some wounds, you have to rip off the band-aid to let them breathe and heal.
*We sometimes lie to ourselves because the truth freaking hurts.
*Sometimes, no matter how hard you love someone, you can never make them love you back the way that you want them to.
*Loving someone who doesn’t love you back is lonelier than being alone.
