I think I'm moving but I get nowhere

"Change. We don't like it. We fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. It hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn't, is lying. But here's the truth. Sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything." - Meredith Grey, Episode 1 Season 4.

Patience and responsibility. Caution and focus. Love and kindness. Anxiety, rivalry, grief, fear. Joy, fun, gratitude, support. Emotions run high within the walls of a hospital. Emotions of doctors, and patients. I've come to realise that the one thing that keeps me going back to watch Grey's Anatomy, despite the promiscuity of the doctors, is the satisfaction of watching the workings within a hospital, and the ups and downs of their emotions; Their ability to pick themselves up. Their ability to support each other. Their ability to adapt. Their ability to do all they can to keep a person alive. Their ability to juggle a million emotions a day.
Yeah, change happens. No matter how much we try to hold on, and wish for things to never change. Change happens. But is change necessarily a bad thing? Humans were made to adapt to every kind of situation we are thrown into. Survival instincts. Basic animal instincts. And from each experience, we learn. And we grow. And growing hurts. But we learn to pick ourselves up every time we fall. And we learn to grow more.
I believe that everyone needs someone. A friend, a family member, a significant other. We all need someone. To help us pick ourselves up when we think we can't stand up again. To remind us that... everybody's someone. =)
