I am just watching this great series from the 90´s again. Yes I know my friends keep telling me to watch something more modern, but I can´t help to really get seduced by stuff out of that time. Anyways it is about this girl who is so in love with a guy and after a lot of obstacles she ends up with him. Finally happy? She wishes. And I did as well for her. But instead she realizes that she could only get what she wanted when she compromised a lot of what was important to her. To make things work and to be with him she was paying with the price of not being herself anymore. Sometimes things don´t work without a certain degree of compromises, but how much shall we compromise of who we are, of what is important to us in order to get what we want and in order to keep it? Be it about love, work, friends, anything else we want in life. How much of yourself can you give away, to get what you think you really want, without feeling that what you lost can not even be filled by what you gained?
