**SPOILER ALERT: If you have not seen "Grey's Anatomy" from 5/20/10, this blog contains details of the show that may ruin it for you.
"Grey's Anatomy" last night was mind-blowing! That was THE BEST season finale ever, and I was an emotional wretch during the whole 2 hours of the show and 1 hour afterwards. I not only woke up with puffy eyes and a full heart, but also a renewed direction.
The show had great action and had me on the edge of my seat with my heart racing, but it was the end that shook me up. Meredith Grey and I have been one and the same for so long. Her childhood and relationship with her parents created this huge wall around her. No need to go back and retell her story because, like me, she has learned to forgive her loved ones and herself and moved on to live the best life she could. In her journey, she met McDreamy (who I love dearly). Through their ups and downs they finally got married...on a post it--still think that was the cutest thing ever, but can we please make sure this marriage is legal? LOL!
This season, Meredith has opened up more than ever. I've seen her smile more in these past few months than all the other previous seasons. When she found out she was pregnant, she was sooo happy and excited. The old Meridith would have freaked out at the thought of being someone's mother. She was afraid to love and be loved by anyone. Her relationship with MrDreamy is beautiful. Now she is communicating her feelings and not holding back her love for him. This man has been beaten down by her because of her wall and he weathered the storm. Love him for that! For sticking it out no matter what she said or did. For loving her, when she could not love herself or show him how strongly she felt for him. He never gave up. There was a line in the show where she said, "It took me a long time to find him. A long time. And even then, it took me a long time to even know that I wanted him." I know exactly what she means. OMG! I'm STILL crying. UGH!!
So last night, when he got shot and was on the operating table hanging on by a thread and the shooter was going to finish the job, she stood in front of the gun and said, "Shoot me! Tell Derrick I love him and I'm sorry." This is Meredith Grey. The woman who at one time could not say the words, "I love you." She was now prepared to die for this man who brought her the joy/love that she deserved, and I know that he would do the same for her in return. Yes, these are fictional characters, but it just made me think that I have yet to experience anything that deep. I don't want just any man. I want a man who will stand in front of the barrel of a gun and take a bullet for me. And I mean this literally. A man that I would not hesitate to do the same for.
That should be in your vows along with love, honor, and obey...Will you take a bullet for this man or woman??? Now that's real love...
That is real love or is it selfishness? I mean no one wants there love to die or take a bullet for them but will take one for them but my pregnant wife taking a bullet no! Hell no! Even though Dr. Shepherd. didn't know, I'm not calling another man McDreamy. That's crazy. Ur not only taking the love of my life away ur taking my 1st child away as well. So u leave all that for me to grieve with. I c love though and sometimes love has us do irrational things that what makes it the phenomena that it is. I hope everyone experiences the love Dr. Grey and Dr.Shepard have, the love Orlando and Emilia have the love Babygurl and I have. Even though I don't want Babygurl taking a bullet for me, ill face a firing squad for her!
