Growing Up with Dawson's Creek

I would remember my mother not allowing me with my sister to watch Dawson's Creek, for various reasons- it is shown in Studio 23 on a Monday- a weekday- meaning we have to study; and there were issues that maybe I could not comprehend- maybe issues that were too old for me or for my sister, however, we still manage sneaking and watching. But there are times mama is still up and we could not sneak watch, we'll just cry (in silence) wanting and sleep craving, and maybe tomorrow our friends saw the episode and give us updates.

I grew up with Dawson, Pacey and Joey, yet its lessons dawned to me more than 10 years after.

We will meet our Dawson- the person that we grew up with and have been with us shoulder to shoulder. The load seems lighter having Dawson on our side. It seemed that we both carry each other's baggage. The comfort of home is what we perceive to be "THE LOVE", for having Dawson feels like home that we feel we really belong (Feels like home by Chantal Kreviazuk)

Then we will meet our Pacey- he gave us the feeling of excitement, fondness and newness. We see Pacey fronting us, and the view is really spectacular. The feeling seems so shiny, and we feel a "DIFFERENT LOVE". We discover new things in ourselves when we are with Pacey. We see the richer spectrum of life because we see Pacey in his fullness.

We both love Dawson and Pacey, yet maybe differently.

There are choices that we have to make, for we have to do what we have to do. Joey choose Pacey, yet she knows that Dawson is her soulmate.

We make our own life story. Dawson's Creek was theirs. The choices that we make will define our story. The story that we will tell to our grandchildren. We don't have to wait for our lives to be over to know what would it be. (I don't wanna wait by Paula Cole) We take risks with each decision. We love.

I have already met my Dawson. Pacey, have I already met you? If i did, I hope I haven't let you pass me by. 

Then I will chose.
