“Something terrible happens, we blame ourselves and we don't want to feel it so we run. We run from joy too, because we think we don't deserve happiness. But it's a package deal: there is no joy without pain."
How can I possibly put into words how special this season was? I started this video months and months ago and it went through a lot of transformations as the series progressed and as I found new ways to showcase all the devastating, wonderful things that happened. The more time goes by the more I realise how perfect the season finale was - the symbolism of the lung transplant breathing literal fresh air into someone's damaged lungs, cut with Maggie and Winston's beautiful wedding, the freedom that an end to a year of suffering and isolation and loneliness finally brought.
This was a series all about healing and about perspective and about learning to breathe, and I wanted to show in this video what I think has always been the most important message of Grey's Anatomy, and one that I think Dr Wyatt so perfectly summarised in 5x03: "Yes, horrible things do happen. Happiness in the face of that? That's not the goal. Feeling the horrible, and knowing that you won't die from those feelings. That's the point."
I have learnt so much from this show and although I did love the recent seasons, this was the first one I have absolutely adored since s11 (season 14 excluded because that was a masterpiece) - and boy did it deliver. In a year that has been so difficult for so many people, when we have collectively lost so much, it felt like coming home, like reuniting with old friends, and - as the soundtrack so aptly verbalised - like breathing again. The way it not only brought back familiar faces but recalled earlier seasons, quotes, and scenes, making everything feel so circular and so precious, like a self-contained memory - but also showing that progress, and change, is inevitable. We can find comfort in the past but we have to keep moving.
I hope you enjoy this edit. I spent months on it, and it means a lot to me. I know I say this with every video, but I think it's my favourite video I've ever made. It's definitely the one closest to my heart, and I think making it helped me heal in the same way that watching these episodes the first time around did. I will always remember the feeling when Derek Shepherd returned on our screens for the first time in 6 years.
I hope you are finding a way to heal too. What a long year and a half it's been. Sending my love to you all ♡
