Does this mean that every wrong choice we've made is ingrained (engrained? I seriously don't know) in our character? Every failed relationship, every unhealthy decision, every moment of weakness? This is all part of the letting go theory we've been discussing. If you look at people as nothing more than a mirror that reflects their past, then you are looking at the world in a very sad, static way. Lorelai does not equal her poor decision to marry Christopher. She does not equal her poor decision to turn her back on Rory. Rory does not equal her poor decision to sleep with married Dean. Emily does not equal her poor decision to ask Christopher to put an end to LL. And so on, and so on.

My faith, both in religion and people, has taught me to look for the good in every person, regardless of their past. There is good in Christopher. I still stand by my statement that neither ASP nor DR ever intended for us to find Christopher detestable. More importantly, there is good in Lorelai. So much good that it's hard for me to understand how you can not see her as a good person!

I understand that you will never like Christopher and you will never look at Lorelai the same, but by doing so, you aren't giving yourself any chance to like the show. Why do that, when we possibly have only six episodes left of this show that we clearly all adored at one point?



From your JJ point of view But not mine. I have found lots to like. It's difficult, knowing that we may only see LL together for a few if not one episode, but there are still things to enjoy about the show.
