Meredith Grey's lines from Grey's Anatomy


I am not so much of a fan of the Grey's Anatomy TV series neither I follow it much; but at the near end of the episode, there is nice music, short scenes mixing and a voice over by Meredith Grey of the series. This voice over makes lot of sense a lot of times. Just to appreciate the writers and directors, I just thought of listing some of the quotes from the Grey's Anatomy TV series.
These are mostly about life, relationships and mostly, serious ones with meaning. Read it and you will know why I chose to mention these quotes. These lines sometimes makes me feel not to miss the series, at least the end of every episode. Try to relate, you may find some answers in case you got some questions. By all means, these are deep and meaningful:




Shiny Happy People:
It’s a common belief that positive thinking leads to a happier, healthier life. As children we are told to smile, be cheerful, and put on a happy face. As adults we are told to look on the bright side, to make lemonade, and see glasses as half full. Sometimes reality can get in the way of our ability to act the happy part though. Your hope can fail, boyfriends can cheat, friends can disappoint. It’s in these moments, when you just want to get real, drop the act, and be your true scared unhappy self.

Love Turns You Upside Down:
There don’t have to be harps playing or birds singing or pose petals falling from the sky… And there are definitely days when the romance is dead. But if you look around, things are pretty amazing. So stop for a second. Enjoy the beauty. Feel the magic. Drink it in. ‘Cause it won’t last forever. The romance will fade. Things will happen. People will change. Love will die. But… maybe not today.

No Good At Saying Sorry:
Remember when we were little, and we’d accidentally bite a kid on the playground? Our teachers would go, “Say you’re sorry.” and we would say it, but we wouldn’t mean it. Because the stupid kid we bit… totally deserved it. But, as we get older, making amends isn’t so simple. After the playground days are over, you can’t just say it, you have to mean it.

In the Midnight Hour:
When you’re little, night time is scary because there are monsters hiding right under the bed. When you get older, the monsters are different… self doubt, loneliness, regret… and though you may be older and wiser, you still find yourself scared of the dark.

Scars and Souvenirs:
People have scars in all sorts of unexpected places, like secret road maps of their personal histories, diagrams of all their old wounds. Most of our old wounds heal, leaving nothing behind but a scar, but some of them don’t. Some wounds we carry with us everywhere and though the cut’s long gone, the pain still lingers.


My Favorite Mistake:
Messing up, it’s what makes a person. It’s how we learn, where we find joy. And the things you don’t plan for, are things you never see coming.

Something to Talk About:
Communication. It’s the first thing we really learn in life. Funny thing is, once we grow up, learn our words and really start talking, the harder it becomes to know what to say. Or how to ask for what we really need.

Blink:
We assume the really serious changes in our lives happen slowly, over time. But it’s not true. The big stuff happens in an instant. Becoming an adult, becoming a parent, becoming a doctor. One minute you’re not, and the next you are. Ask any doctor, and they can point to the one moment they became a physician, and it usually isn’t med school graduation day. Whatever it is, nobody forgets it. Sometimes you don’t even know anything’s changed. You think you‘re still you and your life is still your life. But you wake up one day and look around and you don’t recognize anything, not anything at all.

More to come, hopefully.

Women and Men


Yes, finally, I am writing about this topic. It's too complicated to compare these two genders because they are so much opposite. So I am not comparing here. What I am going to do is leave away some free advice, helpful to all to keep up or make a relationship in a happy way.

FYI - I am no expert in anything. I am just putting my guesses and this is work of fiction. Just read and feel free to agree or disagree. Lets starts with some fun before I drop some gold knowledge.

I found two diaries from a day, a married couple's. Here is a day from it.

Woman's diary - 27 May 2012

Saw him in the evening and he was acting really strangely. I went shopping in the afternoon with the girls and I did turn up a bit late so I thought it might be that. The cafe was really crowded and loud so I suggested we go somewhere quieter to talk. He was still very subdued and distracted so I suggested we go somewhere nice to eat.

All through dinner he just didn't seem himself; he hardly laughed, and didn't  seem to be paying any attention to me or to what I was saying. I just knew that something was wrong. He dropped me back home and I wondered if he  as going to come in; he hesitated, but followed.

I asked him again if there was something the matter but he just half shook is head and turned the television on. After about 10 minutes of silence, I said I was going upstairs to bed. I told him that I loved him deeply. He just gave a sigh, and a sad sort of smile.

He didn't follow me up, but later he did. He still seemed distant and a bit cold, and I started to think that he was going to leave me, and that he had found someone else.

I cried myself to sleep.


Man's diary - 27 May 2012

My team lost IPL final today. Gutted. Better luck next time Chennai. Supported because I made a bet.
Note to self: support other team or stop betting.

Plus, wife did more shopping today. Third day in a row. What is happening here.


Some fun off the Internet:



BOY : I can't leave you... 
GIRL : Do you love me so much?? 
BOY : It's not that. You're standing on my foot. 


BOY : May I hold your hand??
GIRL : No thanks, it isn't heavy.


GIRL : Did you miss me while I was away?? 
BOY : Were you away?? 


GIRL : Who was that girl I saw you kissing last night? 
BOY : What time was it?? 


GIRL : Say you love me! Say you love me! 
BOY : You love me ... 


GIRL : If we become engaged will you give me a ring?? 
BOY : Sure, what's your phone number?? 


GIRL : I think the poorest people are the happiest ... 
BOY : Then marry me and we'll be the happiest couple. 


GIRL : Do you remember when you proposed to me? I was so 
overwhelmed, I couldn't speak for an hour ... 
BOY : Yes Darling, that was the happiest hour of my life ... 


GIRL : Darling, I want to dance like this forever ... 
BOY : Don't you ever want to improve?? 


BOY : I love you and I could die for you! 
GIRL : How soon?? 


GIRL1: Have you ever had a hot passionate, burning kiss?? 
GIRL2: I did once. He'd forgotten to take the cigarette out of his mouth


BOY : I'm a photographer. I've been looking for a face like yours! 
GIRL : I'm a plastic surgeon. I've been looking for a face like yours!!! 


BOY : Hi! Didn't we go on a date once? Or was it twice? 
GIRL : Must've been once. I never make the same mistake twice!!! 


BOY : May I have the pleasure of this dance? 
GIRL : No, I'd like to have some pleasure too!!! 


BOY : Will you come out with me this Saturday? 
GIRL : Sorry! I'm having a headache this weekend!!! 


BOY : Go on, don't be shy. Ask me out! 
GIRL : Okay, get out!!! 


BOY : Shall we go and see a film? 
GIRL : I've already seen it!!! 


BOY : Do you think it was fate which brought us together? 
GIRL : Nah, it was plain bad luck


Okay now, did you get the point? Man and Woman are different - a lot different. I think marriage was supposed to be a magic or supernatural activity to keep them together. 

Jokes apart, here is a real thing. You may be guessing, if you don't know, that fights are like regular in relationships. Somewhere it's monthly, yearly, quarterly, and very sad - may be daily. But no matter how many people say that fight is proof that you care - I would say - fight always sucks. To stay away from fights as much as possible, know each other in behavior especially reactions under stress. 

Mostly, when fight happens, stress imbibes. Many a times, stress comes first and fight comes later. Typically, under stress, men tend to withdraw and isolate while women seek support to their emotions. So probably you can guess when the other person is in stress by the behavior and help console. Also remember to respect the way other person want to handle stress and not push your way in. Most important, time will make it right mostly. Trust this, many things should hopefully smooth out.

More to come, hopefully.
