Grey`s Anatomy Monologue & Music Featured Season 1 Episode 4 - 6

S01E04 - No Man's Land -
Opening:
Intimacy is a four syllable word for
"Here is my heart and soul,
please grind them into hamburger,
and enjoy."

It's both desired, and feared.
Difficult to live with,
and impossible to live without.

Intimacy also comes attached to the three R's...
relatives, romance, and roommates.

There are some things you can't escape.
And other things you just don't want to know. - dr. Meredith Grey -.

Closing:
I wish there were a rulebook for intimacy.
Some kind of guide to tell you
when you've crossed the line.

It would be nice if you could see it coming,
and I don't know how you fit it on a map.
You take it where you can get it,
and keep it as long as you can.

And as for rules,
maybe there are none.

Maybe the rules of intimacy are
something you have to define for yourself. - dr. Meredith Grey -.


S01E05 - Shake Your Groove Thing -
Opening:
Remember when you were a kid
and your biggest worry was, like,
if you'd get a bike for your birthday
or if you'd get to eat cookies for breakfast?

Being an adult? Totally overrated.
I mean seriously, don't be fooled
by all the hot shoes and the great sex
and the no parents anywhere telling you what to do.

Adulthood is responsibility.
Responsibility, it really does suck.
Really, really sucks.

Adults have to be places and do things
and earn a living and pay the rent.

And if you're training to be a surgeon,
holding a human heart in your hands, hello?
Talk about responsibility.
Kind of makes bikes and cookies look really, really good, doesn't it?

The scariest part about responsibility?
When you screw up
and let it slip right through your fingers.- dr. Meredith Grey -.
Music Featured :
Closing:
Responsibility, it really does suck.
Unfortunately, once you get past the age of braces and training bras,
responsibility doesn't go away.

It can't be avoided.
Either someone makes us face it
or we suffer the consequences.

And still adulthood has it perks.
I mean the shoes, the sex, the no parents anywhere telling you what to do.
That's, pretty damn good.- dr. Meredith Grey -.


S07E06 - If Tomorrow Never Comes -
Opening:
A couple of hundred years ago,
Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success.
“Never leave that till tomorrow,” he said, “Which you can do today.”

This is the man who discovered electricity.
You’d think more of us would listen to what he had to say.

I don’t know why we put things off,
but if I had to guess,
I’d say it has a lot to do with fear.

Fear of failure.
Fear of pain.
Fear of rejection.

Sometimes the fear is just of making a decision,
because what if you’re wrong?
What if you make a mistake you can’t undo?

Whatever it is we're afraid of,
one thing holds true: that by the time the pain of not doing the thing
gets worse than the fear of doing it,
it can feel like we're carrying around a giant tumor.

And you thought I was speaking metaphorically.- dr. Meredith Grey -.

Music Featured :
Closing:
The early bird catches the worm;
a stitch in time saves nine.
He who hesitates is lost.

We can't pretend we haven't been told.
We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers,
heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time,
heard the damn poets urging us to ‘seize the day'.

Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves.
We have to make our own mistakes.
We have to learn our own lessons.
We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug
until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves
like Benjamin Franklin meant.

That knowing is better than wondering,
that waking is better than sleeping.
And that even the biggest failure,
even the worst most intractable mistake
beats the hell out of never trying.- dr. Meredith Grey -.

Cheers,
Jaenne
