“LOve again is ironic because it presents itself as a simple reality , the easiest emotion to feel and share but then as you not only feel it but understand it or dig into the core of it then it presents a different face…no longer simple but its as complex as life and death… This is how i experienced love …”

GREY’S ANATOMY
Grey’s Anatomy.a tv show i have been addicted to, ever since Josh (a student of mine) introduced it to me and lent his step mom’s cd containing the show’s season 1 and 2.for three days ,i watched the series ..only allowing breaks and pauses for food,water,bath..and sleep- and only because my eyes were tired and strained. it was the longest video marathon i ever did..hence, an addiction to the show. it didn’t even stop there. after the last episode of season 2, i started waiting for hours- spending time and electricity, downloading season 3..i must admit..i fell in a trance, the world outside just suddenly stopped for a tv show..i cried,laughed a lot,felt loss,felt every pain and joy,surprised and amazed of its twists and turns..in short..i related with it intensely..it reminded me of my past, made me in tune with my present, and gave me clues on how to live my future. its script, is beautifully written . and i must say, it does have a sense of realism – of which Gio (a friend who is now an intern at the PGH) begs to disagree. well maybe not what actually happens on the hospital floors and operating tables, but with how people react and respond on life’s challenges. may it be reacting or responding to love earned or love lost, to making or breaking a career, to keeping or lossing friends, to accepting or denying truths, to holding or letting go of control, to attachments or detachments, to the call of flesh or the spirit, to sanity or madness..all of what being humane is about. i specially like how it presents “An experience, example, or observation that imparts beneficial new knowledge or wisdom” -lessons in life,such as the high and lows of adolescence, the idea of God, religion, hypocricy..et. al..and the soundtracks ..of course..music makes it more dramatic, right!….so – i am a certified fanatic of the tv series..more than i am with 24 or sex and the city or prison break.

you finish off as an orgasm
I want to live my next life backwards. You start
out
dead and get
that out of the way. Then you wake up in a nursing
home feeling
better every day. Then you get kicked out for
being
too healthy. Enjoy
your retirement and collect your pension. Then
when
you start work,
you get a gold watch on your first day. You work
forty
years until
you are too young to work. You get ready for high
school; drink
alcohol, party, and your are generally
promiscuous.
Then you go to
primary school, you become a kid, you play, and
you
have no
responsibilities. Then you become a baby, and
then…
you spend your last nine months floating
peacefully in
luxury, in
spa-like conditions – central heating, room
service on
tap, and then,
you finish off as an orgasm.
