Relateable 'Firefly' Quotes

"Firefly" was an awesome science fiction show back in the early 2000's. It was cancelled too soon after only one season. But in it's time, it gave us some very great quotes.

1. Sometimes a thing gets broke, can't be fixed.

This quote is important because it, at least to me, tells me that not everything is going to be perfect. And you can't always fix everything. And that we need to learn and accept these things.

2. We have done the impossible and that makes us mighty.

This is something I try and quote to myself whenever I feel super stressed out or like I am not doing so well at something. I take it more as I have given it a shot, and that is what counts.

3. How you get there is the worthier part.

So as firefly fans will note, the full quote is as such:

Kaylee: 'How come you don't care where you're going?"
Shepherd Book: "'Cause how you get there is the worthier part."

This quote means a lot, as it is ultimately telling us the journey is sometimes more important than the destination. We shouldn't always be worried about where we are going or where we will end up in life. But rather we should enjoy how we get to that point.

4. We may experience some slight turbulence – and then explode.

Ok, we all have had that moment. Where we are just too stressed out and we are past the brink. Where something small, that may not even really upset you normally, just sends you over the brink. I especially know this feeling with finals coming up.


5. Sir, I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

Lets be real here, we have all wanted to say this quote to somebody at some point. I mean we all have that one person who just irks us.


6. You cant open the book of my life and jump in the middle.


And finally. We all have to start somewhere. We can't just expect for life to skip to the interesting part. We have to weather the storm and make our life our own.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
