Why 'One Tree Hill' Is So Important To Me

I recently started watching “One Tree Hill” and have fallen in love with the show. Here are some of my favorite quotes from the show.

One huge main part of “One Tree Hill” is the music. The musicians on the show -- Bethany Joy Lenz, Gavin Degraw, Bryan Greenberg, Tyler Hilton, Kate Voegele and many more -- and the songs that were part of the show were so important.

A quote that reminds us to be in the moment because life happens and it goes by fast.

“Most of our life is a series of images. They pass us by like towns on the highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever.” - Lucas Scott

The characters show us that it’s OK to feel lost at times growing up.

“There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.” - Lucas Scott

“Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it’s a lot like your world, maybe it’s nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling’s a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all OK. Because we all need a little help sometimes. Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you.” - Lucas Scott

“It doesn’t matter how you plan it. It doesn’t matter how you envision it. Without even knowing it, sometimes life has a way of finding you with what you need. Or exactly who you need.” - Quinn James


“Make a wish and put it in your heart. Anything you want. Everything you want. Do you have it? Good now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is going to come from. Or the next smile. Or the next wish come true. But if you believe it’s right around the corner and you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it to the certainty of it you just might get the thing you are wishing for. The world is full of magic you just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it with all you heart.” - "One Tree Hill"

This is why "One Tree Hill" is so important to me. The show has taught me so much about life and about growing up and it's relatable to so many of us. When I saw the show for the first time, I fell in love with the characters and story line. The quotes make it more meaningful because they are well written.The show will always mean so much to me.
