Opening monologue: Meredith Grey
It's an urban myth that suicide rates spike around the holidays.
Turns out, they actually go down.
Experts think it's because people are less inclined to off themselves
when surrounded by family.
Ironically that same family togetherness, is thought to be why depression
rates actually do spike at the holidays.
Yea..ok, Izzie doesn't count.
Closing monologue: Meredith Grey
There's an old proverb that says you can't choose your family.
You take what the fates hand you.
And like them or not, love them or not,
understand them or not..
you cope.
Then there's the school of thought that says the family your born into,
is simply a starting point.
They feed you and clothes you and take care of you.
Until you're ready to go out into the world.
And find your tribe.
