deep breath.....

well
it's over until next year
~
the big c
~
the only television show this year that has played with every emotion i have
~
the season finale was last night and at the end
well even in the middle
i cried
i really cried
and
not because it was over
but
because of the message it saturated me with
~
if it's available by christmas on a dvd
buy it
i promise you with all my heart that you won't be disappointed
~
oh and the message
~
live
live brightly and profoundly
say what you need to say
love your family to the point of smothering them
do things that make people think you're a bit crazy
or
a whole lot crazy
do what you need to do for you
be nice
be understanding
love
love being alive
laugh
and
then really love some more
*
ps...i woke up this morning to a wonderful award
want to see
?

  1. I've been watching the Big C but won't see the final episode until tonight. It's been a refreshing and interesting show for sure. Does make you rethink a lot of things.

  2. I loved this show too. It made me cry more often than I'd like to admit, but made me smile as well. I hope Marlene continues to make appearances as I found her so refreshing. Laura Linney deserves an award for her portrayal. :)

  3. P.S. Found you from Dawn's site (Puzzle Pieces). I'm a Wisconsin-bred girl who left a piece of her heart there.

    and will you still be one of my bestest peeps if I told you I don't know what show you are talking about? I rarely watch tv... trying to do reading that I should have done when I should have taken what I really wanted to in school back when.

  10. I've never seen this show but would like to. I love the message you got from the show. Isn't it amazing the wonderful things we can learn from a show, a person we cross paths with or a book we read, if we are paying attention? I am going to have to see this show. And congrats again on the potw..it's what brought me to your attention. :)

  13. I have been watching it every week, and the finale had me crying all the way through too. I love the message. I am trying with all my heart to live the message. To live out LOUD. To live the one precious life.
    I am glad to be living at the same time as you, Lovely Beth. I love you.

  15. The Big C is unexpectedly fantastic. I started watching out of curiosity and have been moved and inspired each week. I love how much depth is in just 30 mins of TV.
