So if you really know me, you know I'm a huge Gleek. L-) Like, Tuesdays consist of a serious date night; date with me, my couch and the DVR. Oh, yea. And M too ;)
And last week's Grilled Cheesus episode (10/5) was pretty deep, focusing on faith. But the song that stuck out to me the most was Chris Colfer's (Kurt) rendition of the Beetles' "I Wanna Hold Your Hand," paired with a montage of childhood memories.
Insert tears here. :(
I'm not sure what hit me the hardest. The beautiful memories of Kurt and his father. Or the music/lyrics. Or maybe just the memories of my own life.
Kurt and his father share a beautiful relationship. The father supports him and his lifestyle. Kurt looks out for the best of him and his father. And the day his father has a heart attack, they argue and fight over their differences.
I don't have a relationship with my father. And looking back, I've come to peace with realizing that I really never have. So this may have slightly hit a(n emotional) nerve with me. But moreso, it just flooded me with emotions and reminded me how quickly time can pass, with nothing but a memory in the end. Because really, that's all we're left with. What's your memory going to be?
