Greys Anatomy,SII.
Burke: "There was an interview that Eugene gave, I saved it, I taped it to my bathroom mirror, he said that he wasn't the most talented student at music school but he said what he lacked in natural ability he made up for in discipline, he practiced, all the time, he practiced.

I wasn't like you, I wasn't the most talented student in school, I wasn't the brightest but I was the best"

There's something really pleasing and comforting coming across words that have an effect on you, some might think its ashame you need it to be pointed out, simple obvious things that you should have already known but I think, its simple words advice like these that people take for granted, its nice to be told and be reminded of once in awhile. To know its okay to not be good at everything, to know its okay to make mistakes and to know there are ways to make it up for it.

Also,one of the reasons why I really love Paolo Coelho's Warrior of The Light.
It had a quote on it being okay to not be a warrior, and it sort of convinced me that everyone else felt the same..i forgot the exact lines, maybe i'll update this entry the next time I get hold of that book back in Malaysia.
