I'll Be There for You . . .

So, Dr. Coyne presented a great question for us today in class. What does my favorite TV show fulfill in terms of my life? Naturally, I started to think about Friends. I mean, seriously, this has been my favorite show since I can remember. While I know the show may have some questionable scenes, (thank goodness for the fast-forward button) it still has taught me a lot, and has helped me to cope in many different ways.

I found a picture on Pinterest that represented my relationship (as well as any other die-hard Friends fan out there) with the TV show extremely well:



I guess the biggest thing for me is that when I watch the show, it reminds me of when I was younger, at home with my family, during simpler times. Also, no matter what mood I'm in, Friends never ceases to make me laugh. A few nights after my engagement got broken off, one of my very good friends came to stay with me. She brought all her seasons of Friends and we watched it all night long. Even though I was so broken hearted and depressed, I still laughed all night long.
