Meme stolen from helen_c, way back before finals. LJ went weird, and I saved it instead of finishing it. So then tonight I was bored. Yeah... Expect more posts like this :) If it helps, it's also a picspam! (So NOT DIAL-UP FRIENDLY

♥ Well, I didn't mean to make you cry, but it always strikes me as a good response... And that was a horrendous episode to watch. :(
You could do the meme with no pictures - I don't know if it was part of the original, it was just that the version I stole had caps. And I felt like picspamming!
*g* What are fannish-love memes for if not to pimp out my shows to other people? I think everything on the meme is either something I would say is just good, or is good if you like sci-fi. Some are both, of course! All worth watching, anyway :)
Ok, you have made me laugh and cry and wind up lying on my bed hugging a cushion staring at the ceiling 'cause I can't cope with more emotion for a little bit. (Which is one of the reasons I love you)
"If there's no great glorious end to all this, if nothing we do matters... then all that matters is what we do. 'Cause that's all there is. What we do. Now. Today. I fought for so long, for redemption, for a reward, and finally just to beat the other guy, but I never got it… I wanna help because people shouldn't suffer as they do. Because, if there isn't any bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world. " - This is my life motto, pretty much. My problem with religion as it has always been preached to me, and my argument that atheism is capable of being just as loving as theism.YES. Just, yes. Why's it got to be about redemption? I'd love the idea that I got another chance to see people - that goodbye was never really goodbye - but I don't know if I can believe it. Which is one of the reasons

:) I love that song. So I've now got it playing in the background. I love especially that it runs into All we Have Is Now, which also seems appropriate.
I used to be better at faith, but I don't seem to have enough to spare these past five years or so. Living for what's happening now seems better for all concerned. Which is not antithetical to belief in heaven, but doesn't work with the kind of getting-into-heaven-is-all preaching that I got as a kid. So I decided to follow Joss and say that redemption, if it exists, is the bonus at the end, not the point of the journey.
*is no more coherent* *G* I'm glad you liked the meme anyway!

This is exactly what I think and have failed to explain to lots of people *shakes head* I lose. Well, not totally, but a bit. I lose at being stable and sensible today, at least, but that's another thing.
When I was growing up, I had good vicars in church, who (at least, in my head, seemed to - though maybe I was twisting things) gave the impression that the really important thing was how you lived your life, and if you want to tack hope of redemption onto that, then that's ok. But you don't have to believe in something specific to live your life as best you can for what's happening in it right now.
I suspect I might have twisted what they said, but I'm happy with how I feel about things. 'n' now I'm going to give up on trying to be coherent. I miss you xxx
Because I'm giggling over Wash and his dinosuars, but then I'm sniffling over Mark Greene, and then downright crying because of Izzie and Alex and Denny (which, btw, I have not even *seen* except in screencaps), and you immediately follow that one up with CJ's woot cannow?
And then you've got Dean making *that* face, and Jed mouthing off, and Mal & Tracey, followed by Puppet!Angel in that big power shot?
...my emotional state is all screwed up and tilty right now, thankyouverymuch.
Fandom *is* a mixture of heartbreak and hysteria. And the really good shows can do both in the same episode. *g*
(I've seen the first season of Grey's-I broke down and bought the dvd's-and I've seen most of S2; I just couldn't bring myself to watch the last three eps, because I already knew how it would end, and I wasn't in the mood to sob helplessly. Maybe one day, I will just give in and get it over with.)

It is a beautiful and awesome thing to look at with my coffee this morning, and I thank you.

And isn't fandom a mixture of heartbreak and hysteria? ;)
(Why haven't you seen Grey's? I will admit I saw the caps/icons etc long before the ep, but even we're caught up now!)
