This family favorite, heart warming show, is chocked full of life lessons. Here are 7 things that really hit home with me when I rewatched Gilmore Girls!
1. Your worst enemies can be your best friend
Like Rory and Paris, sometimes your worst enemy can end up being your best friend. Just because you don't get along at first, doesn't mean you won't grow to love each other. Rory and Paris were constantly at each others throats, but they also always there for each other when they needed it most.
2. It's okay to not have a plan
Rory didn't have every second of her life planned out, and even the things she did have planned out didn't stick. It's okay to not have a your every moment planned, things work out the way they're suppose to. Even the things you do have planned, might change. If that happens, just go with the flow. Everything works out the way it's suppose to in the end.
3. Don't be afraid to say no
Rory didn't say yes when Logan asked her to marry him, despite everyone expecting her to. Rory did what was right for at the time. She loved being with him, but knew she had a lot of life left to live, lessons to learn, and options to explore. Don't say yes to every opportunity that's given to you, take time to think it over, and always remember there are other options out there. Do what's right for you.
4. Everyone has bad days
Even the ever so "perfect" Mrs.Gilmore has bad days. It's okay to go a little insane sometimes, and it's okay to need help on those days, don't be afraid to ask for it! Even if you have to give a little extra push, and threaten them with a passenger side trip to crazy town.
5. It's okay to need your parents
The ever so independent and strong Rory, needed Lorelai after going away to college. There's nothing wrong with needing your parents every once in awhile, as a matter of fact I'm sure they'll appreciate it. It's also okay to be a mama's/dad's girl/boy, even when you're an adult.
6. Don't let others get you down
People aren't always going to approve of your choices, similar to Emily not always approving of Lorelai's choices. Don't let that get you down! Keep going, and follow through with your dreams.
7. Take chances
Don't be afraid of taking risks! Live a little. Rory was afraid of the Life and Death Brigade's adventure and wasn't so sure about participating in jumping off the wall with Logan, but she did. You never know how one little adventure, can change your whole life. Take a chance!
