For all of my bad TV lovin' friends out there, we can all agree on one thing: "Grey's Anatomy" is the worst. It's hands down the most unrealistic, heart-wrenching, terrible TV show out there. But, for all of these reasons, it is also the greatest.
Over the course of 12 freakin' seasons you best bet I'm going to get horribly attached to the characters as we've watched them grow from small meaningless nothing hospital interns to doctors who run the place; it is terribly cheesy, but it is seriously my late night binge watching guilty pleasure.
Now, there are lots of things "Grey's Anatomy" has taught me (like don't fall in love with your doctor, tequila can fix a bad day and not to cut the LVAD wires), but nothing compares to that of the words "my person."
Never in my life was I able to connect so deeply to a term when I heard it on this show.
Your person is the person you couldn't imagine your life without, your sun and stars, your soul mate.
I'm talking about the people who drop all of their things, get in a car and drive to you on the other side of the state to give you a hug when you've had the worst day of your life.
The people who get covered in sh*t with you when sh*t hits the fan--the people we could not imagine our lives without.
So, I'd like to take a minute to thank these people, whoever they are; you know exactly who you are.
Thank you for loving me even when I deserved it the least and needed it the most. For being patient, even when you had no patience left, and getting me through the hardest times of my life.
Thank you for letting me sit in your lap and cry when I got my heart broken, and when I bombed the most important project of my school career.
Thank you for being there to pick up the phone just to listen to me cry after a bad day when I didn't know what else to do.
Thank you for being you.
For being unapologetically you.
For being honest and thoughtful. For the love and support you bring to my life and others.
For eating chicken nuggets with me in a McDonalds at 11:30 p.m. even though you have work tomorrow morning, and for getting hungover Chipotle after a very, very hard night of well deserved partying.
On hard days, and easy ones, thank you for never leaving me behind, which would've been the easy thing to do. For standing by me when I'm right, and when I'm wrong (mostly wrong, lets be honest), for seeing me at my worst and showing me love through and through.
Thank you for being on the journey with me. For being the greatest people in our lives, for taking everyday by the reigns and doing this with me. You are the greatest; I wouldn't change this life with you even if I could.
You are my person, and all of your flaws make you everything that you are. At your worst and at your best, you are still you and I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm honored I get to watch you grow and learn, as you are stronger than I have ever seen you before.
You deserve the world and all of the things you've ever dreamed of.
