There’s something deeply human in the tendency to see life as a problem to solve, a raw material to reshape. But perhaps the true masterpiece—the work of a life well-lived—is learning to receive what’s given with wonder, not resistance.
I say this as someone who isn’t a parent. I wonder, though—do those who have held their child for the first time, who’ve learned to love in ways I can only begin to imagine, see this differently? Does the instinct to protect, nurture, and shape something so precious change how one receives life’s unexpected gifts?
To me, this series was a reminder that not every twist is a tragedy in disguise. Some are tangerines.
The actors—what they delivered was nothing short of immaculate. Their performances didn’t just serve the story; they became the story. I’ll carry this series with me for a long time, and I can’t help but wonder if they will too.
