Meredith: [voiceover]You know when you were a little kid and
you believed in fairy tales? That fantasy of what your life would be –
white dress, prince charming who’d carry you away to a castle on a
hill. You’d lie in your bed at night and close your eyes and you had
complete and utter faith. Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, prince charming
–they were so close you could taste them. But eventually you grow up
and one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. Most
people turn to the things and people they can trust. But the thing is,
it’s hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely because almost everyone
has that smallest bit of hope and faith that one day they would open
their eyes and it would all come true.

At the end of the day, faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. Its like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And its not so important, happy ever after, just that its happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you, and once in a while people may even take your breath away.

In life only one thing is certain, apart from death and taxes: No matter how hard you try, no matter how good your intentions, you are going to make mistakes. You are going to hurt people. You are going to get hurt. And if you ever want to recover, theres really only one thing you can say...

Forgive and forget. That's what they say. It's good advice, but it's not very practical. When someone hurts us, we want to hurt them back. When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness old scores never settle. Old wounds never heal, and the most we can hope for is that someday we'll be lucky enough to forget.
