a new beginning
"who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? it's not on the calendar, it's not a birthday, it's not a new year. it's an event, big or small, something that changes us. ideally, that gives us hope, a new way of living and looking at the world, a way of letting go of old habits, old memories. what's important is that we never stop believing we can have a new beginning, but it's also important to remember that, amid all the crap, there are a few things worth holding on to." -grey's anatomy
